“Kingdom” Protista
Caron et al., 2017
Protists span a diversity of life styles, sizes and trophic levels
In the mid-1800’s, Haeckel is attributed to be the first to describe the evolutionary relationships among living organisms, a genealogy of life, as analogous to a tree.

ICoMM’s Tag Sequencing Strategy
• Sequence only short section of hypervariable regions
• Each “tag”is a proxy for a microbe • Query each tag against a reference
data base• Identify taxonomic source of each
Tag to infer community composition.
Provides massively parallel ability to count different kinds of microbes in a community but it is NOT A PHYLOGENETIC TOOL!
