Table 2 The percent reduction in the genomic size of Rhodotorula strains isolated from seawater, compared with the average of the representative terrestrial Rhodotorula. Pelagibacter ubique HTCC1062 and Nitrosopumilis matrimis SCM1 were chosen as well-known examples of streamlined marine microbes for comparison. P. ubique HTCC1062 was compared to five terrestrial strains of the alphaproteobacterial genus Rickettsia and N. matrimis SCM1 to five representative ammonia-oxidizing archaea, all retrieved from the NCBI assembly database (Table S2)
