FIGURE 2.
Estimated genome size (Mb) versus median intergenic spacer (bp) scatter plot of Tous and Amadorio Verrucomicrobia MAGs compared to other freshwater microbes. We include all known brackish and freshwater Verrucomicrobia, representatives of the streamlined freshwater AcI lineage Actinobacteria (Ghai et al., 2014; Kang et al., 2017; Neuenschwander et al., 2017), freshwater Alphaproteobacteria LD12 SAGs (Zaremba-Niedzwiedzka et al., 2013), freshwater heterotrophic Limnohabitans strains and members of the cosmopolitan and abundant Polynucleobacter genus. Estimated genome sizes have been calculated based on checkM completenesses for each MAG, SAG, strain, or cultured genome. Tous and Amadorio MAGs are highlighted in bold.
