Major New Microbial Groups Expand Diversity and Alter our Understanding of the Tree of Life.

Cell - 8 Mar 2018

Castelle Cindy J, Banfield Jillian F

Abstract excerpt

The recent recovery of genomes for organisms from phyla with no isolated representative (candidate phyla) via cultivation-independent genomics enabled delineation of major new microbial lineages, namely the bacterial candidate phyla radiation (CPR), DPANN archaea, and Asgard archaea. CPR and DPANN organisms are inferred to be mostly symbionts, and some are episymbionts of other microbial community members. Asgard...
