Parvarchaeota is a
phylum of
archaea belonging to the
DPANN archaea. They have been
discovered in acid mine
drainage waters and
later in
marine sediments...
- by the
initials of the
first five
groups discovered, Diapherotrites,
Parvarchaeota, Aenigmarchaeota,
Nanoarchaeota and Nanohaloarchaeota.
Later Woesearchaeota...
- Mine
acidophilic nanoorganisms (ARMAN,
comprising Micrarchaeota and
Parvarchaeota),
which were
discovered in 2006 and are some of the
smallest organisms...
-
groups now
comprise deeply divergent phyla named Micrarchaeota and
Parvarchaeota.
Their 16S rRNA
genes differ by as much as 17%
between the
three groups...
