Unrooted maximum-likelihood tree84,85. Full length 16S rRNA gene based phylogenetic relationship of the respective methanotrophs and the USCα. The species investigated in this study are indicated in bold print. The percentage of trees in which the associated taxa clustered together is shown next to the branches. NCBI accession numbers are given in brackets. Putative members of the USCα are highlighted in green. Source data are provided in the Source Data file.
