These data are estimated to derive from at least 1800 genomic species based on sequence relatedness, including 148 previously unknown bacterial
phylotypes.
Cultivation of a human - associated TM7
phylotype reveals a reduced genome and epibiotic parasitic lifestyle.
You asked an unbelievably important question, because one of the things that I see happening, now that the microbiota is kind of in vogue, if you will, is people are getting obsessed with
the phylotype that they have, or the printout that they get when testing the microbiota.
«Calorie restriction enriches
phylotypes positively correlated with lifespan, for example, the genus Lactobacillus on low - fat diet, and reduces
phylotypes negatively correlated with lifespan.
Intriguingly, recent analysis in humans shows that among the Bacteroidaceae family, only a single
phylotype most closely related to B. fragilis is selectively depleted in ASD children compared to matched controls, and most dramatically in those subjects with more severe GI issues (Dae - Wook Kang and Rosa Krajmalnik - Brown, personal communication).
... Partially thawed sites were frequently dominated by a single archaeal
phylotype, Candidatus «Methanoflorens stordalenmirensis» gen. nov. sp. nov., belonging to the uncultivated lineage «Rice Cluster II» (Candidatus «Methanoflorentaceae» fam.
