Branching order of bacterial phyla (Rappe and Giovanoni, 2003)

Main article: Bacterial phyla

There are several models of the Branching order of bacterial phyla, the most cited of these was proposed in 1987 paper by Carl Woese.[1] This cladogram was later expanded by Rappe and Giovanoni in 2003 to include newly discovered phyla.[2]
