Fig. 5From: Time-shifted expression of acetoclastic and methylotrophic methanogenesis by a single Methanosarcina genomospecies predominates the methanogen dynamics in Philippine rice field soilPhylogenetic tree of the four Methanosarcina populations detected in the paddy soil slurries (a) and their relative abundance dynamics over incubation time (b). a The neighbor-joining tree was constructed based on near full-length 16S rRNA sequences (> 1200 bp) assembled by EMIRGE from the metatranscriptomic datasets (415 sequences) and reference sequences extracted from Methanosarcina genomes in GTDB. b The relative abundance dynamics of the four distinct Methanosarcina populations (Groups I to IV) were inferred from the assembled 16S rRNA sequences.
