Abstract

A freshwater isolate from Campus Lake, Baton Rouge, LA, USA, strain ATCC 35122 (= ICPB 4362 = Schmidt CLPM White = Tekniepe BT2 white), which had been proposed as a putative reference strain for 'Planctomyces staleyi' (later reclassified as Pirellula staleyi), has been re-examined to establish its relationship to the type strain of Pirellula staleyi, ATCC 27377T. 165 rRNA sequencing confirms its very close relationship to ATCC 27377T and its membership of the order Planctomycetales. Ultrastructural characteristics are also consistent with its membership of the planctomycetes and of the genus Pirellula. These characteristics include polar crateriform structures and the occurrence of the unique internal, single-membrane-bounded compartment enclosing the nucleoid and ribosome-like particles, the pirellulosome, and a polar cap region. Cells of strain ATCC 35122 often displayed pointed, hump-like protrusions opposite each other on the cell, constituting prosthecae, and these were also found to be present on cells of strain ATCC 27377T. The original identification of ATCC 35122 as a strain of Pirellula staleyi is confirmed on both molecular and phenotypic grounds.

Attention Score in Context

Attention Score in Context

This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 10. This is our high-level measure of the quality and quantity of online attention that it has received. This Attention Score, as well as the ranking and number of research outputs shown below, was calculated when the research output was last mentioned on 25 October 2012.
All research outputs
#3,168,942
of 22,684,168 outputs
Outputs from International Journal of Systematic and Evolutionary Microbiology
#1,361
of 8,732 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#4,147
of 45,565 outputs
Outputs of similar age from International Journal of Systematic and Evolutionary Microbiology
#2
of 44 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 22,684,168 research outputs across all sources so far. Compared to these this one has done well and is in the 86th percentile: it's in the top 25% of all research outputs ever tracked by Altmetric.
So far Altmetric has tracked 8,732 research outputs from this source. They typically receive a little more attention than average, with a mean Attention Score of 5.1. This one has done well, scoring higher than 84% of its peers.
Older research outputs will score higher simply because they've had more time to accumulate mentions. To account for age we can compare this Altmetric Attention Score to the 45,565 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one has done particularly well, scoring higher than 90% of its contemporaries.
We're also able to compare this research output to 44 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one has done particularly well, scoring higher than 95% of its contemporaries.
