Journal ArticleDOI
Microthrix parvicella is a novel, deep branching member of the actinomycetes subphylum
Linda L. Blackall,Elizabeth M. Seviour,Mitchell A. Cunningham,Robert J. Seviour,Philip Hugenholtz +4 more
TL;DR: Gram-positive, straight filamentous bacterium “ Microthrix parvicella” is isolated from an activated sludge sewage treatment plant in Australia by using micromanipulation techniques and phylogenetically placed as a deep branching member of the actinomycetes subphylum.
Journal ArticleDOI
Phylogeny of the filamentous bacterium Eikelboom Type 1851, and design and application of a 16S rRNA targeted oligonucleotide probe for its fluorescence in situ identification in activated sludge
Michael Beer,Elizabeth M. Seviour,Yun Kong,Mitchell A. Cunningham,Linda L. Blackall,Robert J. Seviour +5 more
TL;DR: The 16S rRNA targeted oligonucleotide probe designed for fluorescence in situ hybridisation against this sequence successfully identified filamentous bacteria with the morphological features of Eikelboom Type 1851 in activated sludge samples from plants in several countries and different operational configurations.
Journal ArticleDOI
16S rRNA Analysis of Isolates Obtained from Gram-Negative, Filamentous Bacteria Micromanipulated from Activated Sludge
Debbie Bradford,Philip Hugenholtz,Elizabeth M. Seviour,Mitchell A. Cunningham,Helen Stratton,Robert J. Seviour,Linda L. Blackall +6 more
TL;DR: In this paper, Eikelboom Type 0092, Type 0411, Type 0803 and Herpetosiphon sp. were identified in activated sludge mixed liquors and specifically isolated by micromanipulation.
Journal ArticleDOI
The filamentous morphotype Eikelboom Type 1863 is not a single genetic entity
Elizabeth M. Seviour,Linda L. Blackall,Camilla Christensson,Philip Hugenholtz,Mitchell A. Cunningham,Debbie Bradford,Helen Stratton,Robert J. Seviour +7 more
TL;DR: Five isolates of a filamentous bacterial morphotype with the distinctive diagnostic microscopic features of Eikelboom Type 1863 were obtained from activated sludge sewage treatment plants in Victoria, Australia and proved to be polyphyletic.
Journal ArticleDOI
The characterization and description of representatives of 'G' bacteria from activated sludge plants.
Linda L. Blackall,Simona Rossetti,Camilla Christensson,Mitchell A. Cunningham,P. Hartman,Philip Hugenholtz,V. Tandoi +6 more
TL;DR: Two strains of the tetrad arranged cocci, previously known as ‘G’ bacteria, which were isolated from laboratory scale activated sludge plants in the Czech Republic and in Italy were found to comprise a novel lineage in the alpha‐3 group of the proteobacterial phylum in the domain Bacteria.
