Ecophysiology of Freshwater Verrucomicrobia Inferred from Metagenome-Assembled Genomes

ABSTRACT Microbes are critical in carbon and nutrient cycling in freshwater ecosystems. Members of the Verrucomicrobia are ubiquitous in such systems, and yet their roles and ecophysiology are not well understood. In this study, we recovered 19 Verrucomicrobia draft genomes by sequencing 184 time-se...
