March's Microbe of the Month is another exciting one! Minisyncoccus archaeiphilus is a novel bacteria isolated from mesophillic methanogenic sludge which parasitizes methanogenic archaea. Read about this, and more, in the latest edition of New to Science https://t.co/mtApM4BxBh
Researchers have isolated an ultrasmall bacterium belonging to a large phylogenetic group that includes various lineages of uncultivated bacteria — the CPR. Read the press release on the research, published in #IJSEM, here https://t.co/l4KerDpRZz 🔬
Delighted to share our latest study on the first successful isolation of CPR bacteria parasitizing archaea! We propose taxonomic classification for a massively diverse of enigmatic bacteria, including the novel phylum Minisyncoccota. @MicrobioSoc
