Phylogenetic analysis of the 16S rRNA gene sequence for strain WGK6 shows that it is most similar to the human gut isolate M. stadtmanae DSMZ 3091T and both are clustered with other clone sequences representing uncultured methanogens derived from ruminant and macropodid sources. Only bootstrap values >50% are shown and the scale bar represents 2% sequence divergence, with S. acidocaldarius and P. fumarii used as the outgroups.
