Taxonomy

Description
The phylum represents a monophyletic lineage based on the concatenated phylogeny of 120 protein markers and contains the class Patescibacteriia. This phylum is characterized by members with a low genomic GC content (33.6 ± 6.7%), reduced genome sizes (919.3 kbp ± 256 kbp) and limited metabolic capabilities, that are likely to rely on symbiotic partners for survival. The type genus is Patescibacterium.
