Uncultivated thermophiles: current status and spotlight on ‘Aigarchaeota’

Highlights • Independent analyses show novel taxa and coding sequences are highly abundant in geothermal systems. • Candidate taxa include ‘Aigarchaeota’, ‘Korarchaeota’, ‘Calescamantes’, and ‘Fervidibacteria’. • Genomic exploration provides a window into the biology of uncultivated microbes. • ‘Aig...

Zusammenfassung:Highlights • Independent analyses show novel taxa and coding sequences are highly abundant in geothermal systems. • Candidate taxa include ‘Aigarchaeota’, ‘Korarchaeota’, ‘Calescamantes’, and ‘Fervidibacteria’. • Genomic exploration provides a window into the biology of uncultivated microbes. • ‘Aigarchaeota’ is a diverse, globally distributed group of obligate thermophiles.
