Emergence of putative energy parasites within <i>Clostridia</i> revealed by genome analysis of a novel endosymbiotic clade
2023-07-03
Abstract excerpt
The Clostridia is a dominant bacterial class in the guts of various animals and are considered to nutritionally contribute to the animal host. Here, we discovered clostridial endosymbionts of cellulolytic protists in termite guts, which have never been reported with evidence. We obtained (near-)complete genome sequences of three endosymbiotic Clostridia , each associated with a different parabasalid protist spec...
