According to recent research from Germany, "In the past, studies on the relationships of the bacterial phyla Planctomycetes, Chlamydiae, Lentisphaerae, and Verrucomicrobia using different phylogenetic markers have been controversial. Investigations based on 16S rRNA sequence analyses suggested a relationship of the four phyla, showing the branching order Planctomycetes, Chlamydiae, Verrucomicrobia/Lentisphaerae." "Phylogenetic analyses of 23S rRNA genes in this study also support a monophyletic grouping and their branching order-this grouping is significant for understanding cell division, since the major bacterial cell division protein FtsZ is absent from members of...
