Summary Introduction
To review:
The comparison and contrast between the diverse members of the Crenarchaeota and Thaumarchaeota.
Introduction:
Archaea are majorly divided into three phyla, Crenarchaeota, Thaumarchaeota, and Euryarchaeota. It is difficult to define the phylogeny of Archaea since most of them cannot be cultured and are known through small-subunit rRNA (ribosome ribonucleic acid) sequences or metagenomics. Many archaeal genomes include a large portion of DNA (deoxyribonucleic acid) transferred horizontally from bacteria.
