{wiki=Lentisphaerota}
Lentisphaerota is a phylum of bacteria that was proposed based on metagenomic studies and characterized by certain distinct genetic and phenotypic traits. Members of this phylum are generally found in various aquatic environments and may have a unique role in biogeochemical processes. Lentisphaerota bacteria are often described as having complex cell shapes and are suggested to be involved in microbial interactions and community dynamics.
