Shallow Hydrothermal Vent Bacteria and Their Secondary Metabolites with a Particular Focus on <i>Bacillus</i> by Revathi Gurunathan, Arthur James Rathinam, Jiang-Shiou Hwang, Hans-Uwe Dahms

“…The highest number of colonies was obtained from Zobell marine agar plates with an overall number of 29 genetically distinct isolates. 16sRNA gene sequencing using the Sanger sequencing method revealed that most of the bacterial species belonged to the phylum Firmicutes and the class Bacilli. The present study indicates that hydrothermal vent bacteria and their secondary metabolites may play an important role for the reconstruction of the evolutionary history of the phylum Procaryota.…”

Presence and diversity of Chlamydiae bacteria in Spinturnix myoti, an ectoparasite of bats by Thiévent Kevin, Szentiványi Tamara, Aeby Sébastien, Glaizot Olivier, Christe Philippe, Greub Gilbert

“…These results highlighted for the first time the presence of Chlamydia-like organisms and the possible zoonotic origin of Chlamydia sp. in S. myoti ectoparasites of bats, and therefore suggest that these ectoparasites may play a role in maintaining and/or transmitting members of the Chlamydiae phylum within Myotis spp. bat populations. Our results further highlight that the wide diversity of bacteria belonging to the Chlamydiae phylum is largely underestimated.…”
