^a Evidence codes - TAS: Traceable Author Statement (i.e., a direct report exists in the literature); NAS: Non-traceable Author Statement (i.e., not directly observed for the living, isolated sample, but based on a generally accepted property for the species, or on anecdotal evidence). These evidence codes are from the Gene Ontology project [24]. ^* The rank of phylum is not covered by the Rules of the International Code of Nomenclature of Prokaryotes
