Occurrence, Diversity, and Genomes of “ Candidatus Patescibacteria” along the Early Diagenesis of Marine Sediments

Abstract: Ultrasmall-celled “ Ca. Patescibacteria” have been estimated to account for one-quarter of the total microbial diversity on Earth, the parasitic lifestyle of which may exert a profound control on the overall microbial population size of the local ecosystems. However, their diversity and metabolic functions in marine sediments, one of the largest yet understudied ecosystems on Earth, remain virtually uncharacterized.

“…The phylum Patescibacteria is considered a superphylum composed of a diverse set of bacteria [45,46]. Bacteria within this phylum are often found in aquatic environments [46][47][48][49]. Thus, it is likely that the abundance of this bacterial phylum on the skin increases with prolonged exposure to an aquatic environment (i.e., seawater) and therefore is found in higher abundance on the skin of nesting females.…”

“…Finally, Acidobacteria, Chloroflexi phyla, which were abundant in the barcode diversity, Patescibacteria, Spirochaetes, Armatimonadetes, Verrucomicrobia and Nitrospirae, which were less abundant, and finally the scarce phyla Fusobacteria, Gemmatimonadetes, Latescibacteria, Rokubacteria, WSP-2 and Epsilonbacteraeota were completely missing (Fig 8). With the exception of the Patescibacteria, Fusobacteria, Latescibacteria, Rokubacteria and WSP-2 phyla, which are currently candidate phyla lacking cultured representatives [103][104][105][106][107], viable isolates could be obtained for other mentioned phyla. For example, the culture conditions for isolating bacteria from Acidobacteria, Verrucomicrobia [108][109][110] and Spirochaetes phyla [111,112] have been described.…”

“…Within the Actinobacteria phylum, which was not well represented in our collection (Fig 7), several orders were missing, with the most important being Micromonosporales, Acidimicrobiales and Kineosporiales, and within the Bacteroidetes phylum the missing orders were Bacteroidales, Flavobacteriales and Cytophagales.Finally, Acidobacteria, Chloroflexi phyla, which were abundant in the barcode diversity, Patescibacteria, Spirochaetes, Armatimonadetes, Verrucomicrobia and Nitrospirae, which were less abundant, and finally the scarce phyla Fusobacteria, Gemmatimonadetes, Latescibacteria, Rokubacteria, WSP-2 and Epsilonbacteraeota were completely missing (Fig 7). With the exception of the Patescibacteria, Fusobacteria, Latescibacteria, Rokubacteria and WSP-2 phyla, which are currently candidate phyla lacking cultured representatives(99)(100)(101)(102)(103), viable isolates could be obtained for other mentioned phyla. For example, the culture conditions for isolating bacteria from Acidobacteria, Verrucomicrobia(104)(105)(106) and Spirochaetes phyla (107,108) have been described.…”
