Monitoring a widespread bacterial group: in situ detection of planctomycetes with 16S rRNA-targeted probes
Abstract
Summary: The group of planctomycetes represents a separate line of descent within the domain Bacteria. Two phylum-specific 16S rRNA-targeted oligonucleotide probes for planctomycetes have been designed, optimized for in situ hybridization and used in different habitats to detect members of the group in situ. The probes, named PLA46 and PLA886, are targeting all or nearly all members of the planctomycete line of descent. Planctomycetes could be detected in almost all samples examined, e.g. a brackish water lagoon, activated sludge, and other wastewater habitats. In situ probing revealed quite uniform morphology and spatial arrangement of the detected cells but profound differences in abundance ranging from less than 01% to several percentage of the total cells. Single coccoid cells with diameters between 1 and 25 m were dominating in most samples with the exception of the lagoon, in which rosettes of pear-shaped cells were abundant. The planctomycetes showed generally no hybridization signals with the bacterial probe EUB338, which is in accordance with base changes in their 16S rRNA sequences. A discrete ultrastructure of planctomycete cells was suggested by double staining with rRNA-targeted probes and the DNA-binding dye 4',6-diamidino-2-phenylindole (DAPI). The probe-conferred fluorescence was distributed in a ring-shaped manner around a central DAPI spot. The two probes developed extend the existing set of group-specific rRNA-targeted probes and help to elucidate the basic composition of bacterial communities in a first step of differential analysis. In situ hybridization of environmental samples indicated widespread presence of planctomycetes in different ecosystems.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
