Targeted Cell Sorting Combined With Single Cell Genomics Captures Low Abundant Microbial Dark Matter With Higher Sensitivity Than Metagenomics

Rare members of environmental microbial communities are often overlooked and unexplored, primarily due to the lack of techniques capable of acquiring their genomes. Chloroflexi belong to one of the most understudied phyla, even though many of its members are ubiquitous in the environment and some pl...
