Members of the phylum Gemmatimonadota can account for up to 10% of the phylogenetic diversity in bacterial communities. However, a detailed investigation of their cell biology and ecological roles is restricted by currently only six characterized species. By combining low-nutrient media, empirically determined inoculation volumes and long incubation times in a 96-well plate cultivation platform, we isolated two strains from a limnic sponge that belong to this under-studied phylum. The characterization suggests that the two closely related strains constitute a novel species of a novel genus, for which we introduce the name Pseudogemmatithrix spongiicola. The here demonstrated isolation of novel members from an under-studied bacterial phylum substantiates that the cultivation platform can provide access to axenic bacterial cultures from various environmental samples. Similar to previously described members of the phylum, the novel isolates form spherical appendages at the cell poles that were believed to be daughter cells resulting from asymmetric cell division by budding. However, time-lapse microscopy experiments and quantitative image analysis showed that the spherical appendages never grew or divided. Although the role of these spherical cells remains enigmatic, our data suggests that cells of the phylum Gemmatimonadota divide via FtsZ-based binary fission with different division plane localization patterns than in other bacterial phyla.
