Fig. 2: Omnitrophota cell size.

a, Genomes associated with microscopically observed organisms are indicated with red circles. SAGs with associated particle size estimates are indicated as blue dots. Cell size estimates associated with MAGs from Rifle, Colorado108,109 and Crystal Geyser, Utah110 are based on serial-filtered samples. Filters are shown as black or white circles: filters represented by filled circles retained the organism; unfilled circles did not have Omnitrophota MAGs. Lines connecting dots represent the estimated cell size ranges given the observed data. b, Relative abundance of 16S rRNA genes in filtrates from Cave Spring (CS), Kiup Spring (KS) and Grapevine Spring (GVS). Red lines indicate an increase in relative abundance from the 0.45 μm filter to the 0.2 μm filter. c, The same calculation performed at the family level.
