Fig. 4From: A comprehensive metagenomics framework to characterize organisms relevant for planetary protectionNovel genomes. a Number of likely novel bacterial species in the data. Novel species have necessarily not been characterized. To estimate the possible function of novel species we identify genes with known planetary protection significance in the genomes. b Growth rate (GRiD) scores for genomes computationally isolated. Numbers above 1 indicate active growth. Genomes that did not match any known species are referred as novel. Numbers next to species names indicate strainsBack to article page
