An ANI gap within bacterial species that advances the definitions of intra-species units
2022-06-27
Abstract excerpt
Large-scale surveys of prokaryotic communities (metagenomes) as well as isolate genomes have revealed that their diversity is predominantly organized in sequence-discrete units that may be equated to species. Specifically, genomes of the same species commonly show genome-aggregate average nucleotide identity (ANI) >95% among themselves and ANI <90% to members of other species, while genomes showing ANI 90-95% are...
