Hello, fellow astrobiologists! @MicrobesAWG @daniela.bezdan @jaume.puig
I recently conducted some analyses on archaeal species, and the phylogenetic trees I generated yielded some unexpected results. To be more precise, these trees suggest that mesophilic archaea are ancestral to thermophilic archaea, which seems to contradict the prevailing consensus.
I’m puzzled by these results and would like to discuss them with someone more knowledgeable. Please let me know if you or someone you know could help.
Thank you!
Anna
