Togobacteria

Thermotogae is a phylum of the domain "Bacteria". This phylum comprises merely the class "Thermotogae", with the order "Thermotogales" and the family "Thermotogaceae".

It has been suggested that may be deeply branched within the bacteria, and may have much in common with species in Archaea.[1] Members of the phylum contain numerous genes similar in sequence to those of Synergistetes, Firmicutes, Actinobacteria, Deferribacteres, Chloroflexi, Deinococcus-Thermus, and Fusobacteria.[2]

Along with Aquificae, members of Thermotogae are thermophilic eubacteria.[3]

Phylogeny

The currently accepted taxonomy is based on the List of Prokaryotic names with Standing in Nomenclature (LPSN) [4] and National Center for Biotechnology Information (NCBI)[5] and the phylogeny is based on 16S rRNA-based LTP release 106 by The All-Species Living Tree Project [6]
