Notes.

a

Genome completeness and contamination were estimated based on the presence/absence of a 111 single-copy gene set from Dupont et al. (2012). Revised genome completeness and contamination were calculated based on a revised total of 105 single-copy genes estimated to be present in the KSB3 genomes (Table S2). Numbers in parentheses indicats detected number of genes per total number of each gene set.

b

Relative genome abundance for each KSB3 genome was determined based on 16S rRNA gene profiling using shotgun metagenome data (Table S1).

c

Number of rRNA operons in the KSB3 genomes were inferred based on relative coverage profiles of KSB3 16S rRNA genes and the genome averages (Fig. S2).

d

Counts (% of total ORFs).

e

Predicted number of transmembrane sensors based on the possession of a sensor domain (Galperin, 2004) and >1 transmembrane segments (Table S8).

f

Number of all two-domain response regulators containing CheY-like domains estimated from PSI-BLAST searches of domain-specific profiles against the protein set described in Galperin (2004) (Table S8).
