In this crystal ball, we discuss emerging methodologies that can help reaching a synthesis on the biodiversity of Archaea and Bacteria and thereby inform a central enigma in microbiology, i.e. the fundamental split between these primary domains of life and the apparent lower diversity of the Archaea.
在这个水晶球里,我们讨论了新兴的方法学,这些方法学可以帮助我们对古菌和细菌的生物多样性进行综合分析,从而为微生物学中的一个核心谜团提供信息,即生命这两个主要领域之间的根本分裂以及古菌明显较低的多样性。
