The phylogenetic tree is based on an alignment of 120 bacterial marker genes from Alcanivorax MAGs included in GTDB [59], fourteen MAGs from GROS [63] and six MAGs retrieved in this study. The tree was calculated using GTDB-Tk [59]. The isolation source of the cultivated species is given next to the accession numbers. Ca. Porisulfidus was used as an outgroup. The two subgroups exhibited a clear difference in GC content, <60% for Alcanivorax venustensis-related genomes (upper branch) and >63% for A. borkumensis-related genomes (lower branch).
