Berkelbacteria (formerly ACD58) is a bacterial phylum.
Berkelbacteria (formerly ACD58) is abacterial phylum withcandidate status, meaning there are no cultured representatives for this group. It is part of theCandidate Phyla Radiation .
Berkelbacteria was first reported in 2012, at which time it was classified as a divergent lineage of Parcubacteria (OD1) and referred to as ACD58.[ 1] [ 2] thermokarst lake in the Sasapimakwananisikw River Valley (QC, Canada),[ 3] [ 2] [ 4]
