Global metagenomic survey reveals a new bacterial candidate phylum in geothermal springs

The analysis of existing metagenomic data can lead to discovery of new microorganisms. Here, Eloe-Fadrosh et al. perform a large-scale analysis of global metagenomic data, followed by genome reconstruction and single-cell genomics, to describe a new bacterial phylum that inhabits geothermal springs.
