Figure 7: Hierarchical clustering of Matses Treponema and reference bacterial strains based on KEGG functional potential data.
From: Subsistence strategies in traditional societies distinguish gut microbiomes
Open reading frames (ORFs) predicted from reconstructed Matses Treponema genomes were annotated using the MAPLE server24 and compared with reference bacterial genomes (including Spirochaetes). The Matses Treponema strains share functional similarities with Treponema succinifaciens, a known carbohydrate metabolizer and apathogenic member of the swine gut microbiome. *denotes the Matses Treponema strains.
