Linking morphology, genome, and metabolic activity of uncultured magnetotactic Nitrospirota at the single-cell level
Abstract Background Magnetotactic bacteria (MTB) are a unique group of microorganisms that sense and navigate through the geomagnetic field by biomineralizing magnetic nanoparticles. MTB from the phylum Nitrospirota (previously known as Nitrospirae) thrive in diverse aquatic ecosystems. They are of...
