“…While the Cyanobacteria phylum has traditionally been considered to exclusively contain oxygenic phototrophs, several deepbranching non-phototrophic clades have recently been described within the Cyanobacteria phylum, including Melainabacteria, a sister group to oxygenic Cyanobacteria (i.e., Oxyphotobacteria), as well as deeper-branching clades(Di Rienzi et al, 2013;Johnson et al, 2013b;Ley et al, 2005;Soo, Woodcroft, Parks, Tyson, & Hugenholtz, 2015;Soo et al, 2014).
