Metagenomic sequencing of fracture fluid from South Africa recovered a nearly complete "<i>Candidatus</i> Bathyarchaeota" archaeon genome. The metagenome-assembled genome of BE326-BA-RLH contains genes involved in methane metabolism and dissimilatory nitrate reduction. This study presents the first genomic evidence for potential anaerobic methane oxidation in the phylum "<i>Ca.</i> Bathyarchaeota." ...[more]
