Abstract excerpt
The in situ ecophysiology of alphaproteobacterial filamentous Cluster III Defluviicoccus present in enhanced biological phosphorus removal (EBPR)-activated sludge systems was evaluated using FISH-MAR and histochemical staining methods. These organisms, sharing the Nostocoida limicola morphotype, are known to be responsible for serious episodes of activated sludge bulking. The data presented here also demonstrate...
