Phylum:	TG3

Candidate phylum TG3(akacandidate division Termite Group 3orChitinivibrioniaSorokin et al. 2014)^[1]is acandidate phylumthat is closely related to thephylumFibrobacterotabased on16S rRNAgene phylogeny. Originally thought to be composed solely of sequences fromtermiteguts, it was later found to be more widespread in nature.^[2]
