Phylogenetically novel uncultured microbial cells dominate Earth microbiomes

2018-04-18

Abstract excerpt

To unequivocally determine a microbe’s physiology, including its metabolism, environmental roles, and growth characteristics, it must be grown in a laboratory culture. Unfortunately, many phylogenetically-novel groups have never been cultured, so their physiologies have only been inferred from genomics and environmental characteristics. Although the diversity, or number of different taxonomic groups, of uncultured...
