Genomic characterization of methanomicrobiales reveals three classes of methanogens.

Genomic characterization of methanomicrobiales reveals three classes of methanogens.

BACKGROUND:Methanomicrobiales is the least studied order of methanogens. While these organisms appear to be more closely related to the Methanosarcinales in ribosomal-based phylogenetic analyses, they are metabolically more similar to Class I methanogens. METHODOLOGY/PRINCIPAL FINDINGS:In order to i...
