Fascinating study!
The methanogen core and pangenome: conservation and variability across biology’s growth temperature extremes
"Increased methanogenic growth temperature is associated with reduced genome size, and thermotolerant organisms...have larger core genome fractions, suggesting that genome size is governed by temperature rather than phylogeny. "

The methanogen core and pangenome: conservation and variability across biology’s growth temperature extremes
Abstract. Temperature is a key variable in biological processes. However, a complete understanding of biological temperature adaptation is lacking, in part becaProndzinsky, Paula (Oxford University Press)
