Candidate Phyla Radiation (CPR) bacteria from hyperalkaline ecosystems provide novel insight into their symbiotic lifestyle and ecological implications
This finding deepens our understanding of the mechanisms of CPR-host symbiosis, providing novel insight into essential cofactor-dependent mutualistic CPR-host interactions. Our observations suggest that CPR bacteria may contribute to auxotrophic organisms and indirectly influence biogeochemical processes. Video Abstract.
