Mar 30, 2018 · Tenericutes. The phylum Tenericutes circumscribes a group of very small prokaryotes that emerged through a series of repeated genome reductions from distant ancestry in the phylum Firmicutes. Lacking any cell wall whatsoever, these bacteria are Gram-stain-negative and filterable through pores as narrow as 100 nm, although flexible cytoskeletal ...
Jun 7, 2021 · In this study, Candidatus_Bacilloplasma (phylum Tenericutes) was the most central genus in the co-correlation network. Tenericutes is a phylum of bacteria that lack a peptidoglycan cell wall, and the most well-studied clade in this phylum is the class Mollicutes (Wang et al., 2020).
Mollicutes are parasites of various animals and plants, living on or in the host's cells. Many cause diseases in humans, attaching to cells in the respiratory or urogenital tracts, particularly species of Mycoplasma and Ureaplasma. Phytoplasma and Spiroplasma are plant pathogens associated with insect vectors.
