Diversity of the candidate phylum Poribacteria in the marine sponge Aplysina fulva, Brazilian Journal of Microbiology, 44, 1, 329-334, 2013.1678-4405http://hdl.handle.net/10400.1/5530Poribacterial clone libraries constructed for Aplysina fulva sponge specimens were analysed with respect to diversity and phylogeny. Results imply the coexistence of several, prevalently “intraspecific” poribacterial genotypes in a single sponge host, and suggest quantitative analysis as a desirable approach in studies of the diversity and distribution of poribacterial cohorts in marine sponges.engMarine spongesBacterial diversityBacterial phylogeny16S rRNA genejournal article2014-10-2410.1590/S1517-83822013000100048
