Fig. 1. Phylogenetic tree reconstruction of the NS5 Marine Group.
a 16S rRNA gene tree constructed using MAG sequences, from this and previous studies and the GTDB database, and 100 sequences classified as NS5 Marine Group in the SILVA 138 database. The tree represents a consensus from six input trees, constructed using three different algorithms, RaxML, Neighbour-joining and parsimony, with two different positional variability filters. b Ribosomal protein tree generated from a concatenated alignment of 16 proteins identified within NS5 species-representatives MAGs and genomes of Polaribacter and Tenacibaculum retrieved from the NCBI RefSeq database. The cultured isolate, Iso_AHE01FL, is highlighted in bold and with ***.
