Journal ArticleDOI

A novel species of ellipsoidal multicellular magnetotactic prokaryotes from Lake Yuehu in China.

TL;DR: Novel ellipsoidal MMPs that are ∼ 10 × 8 μm in size, and composed of about 86 cells arranged in six to eight interlaced circles display a morphological cell differentiation, implying a potential division of labour.
Journal ArticleDOI

Magnetosome Gene Duplication as an Important Driver in the Evolution of Magnetotaxis in the Alphaproteobacteria.

TL;DR: The isolation, cultivation, and sequencing of a novel magnetotactic spirillum belonging to the genus Terasakiella within the class Alphaproteobacteria indicate that gene duplication plays an important role in the evolution of magnetotaxis in the Alphaproteinobacteria and perhaps the domain Bacteria.
Journal ArticleDOI

Novel species and expanded distribution of ellipsoidal multicellular magnetotactic prokaryotes

TL;DR: Comparison of nine physical and chemical parameters revealed that sand grain size and the content of inorganic nitrogen in the sediments from Rongcheng City and Six-Fours-les-Plages were similar, and lower than found for sediment from the other two sampling sites, revealing broad diversity and wide distribution of e-MMPs.
Journal ArticleDOI

Characterization of uncultivated magnetotactic bacteria from the sediments of Yuehu Lake, China

TL;DR: The results indicate that microbial communities containing previously unidentified magnetotactic bacteria occur in the Yuehu Lake.
