Towards a balanced view of the bacterial tree of life

Towards a balanced view of the bacterial tree of life

Abstract The bacterial tree of life has recently undergone significant expansion, chiefly from candidate phyla retrieved through genome-resolved metagenomics. Bypassing the need for genome availability, we present a snapshot of bacterial phylogenetic diversity based on the recovery of high-quality S...
