Abstract

A soil profile from the Saxnäs Mosse peat bog, Sweden, has been analysed for glycerol dialkyl glycerol tetraether (GDGT) membrane lipids and 16S rRNA genes in order to constrain the source of the yet ‘orphan,’ but supposedly bacterial, branched GDGTs. Branched GDGT lipids dominate over archaeal membrane lipids. The Acidobacteria comprise the dominant bacterial group, accounting for the majority of total Bacteria, and are generally more abundant than methanogenic archaea. Analysed acidobacterial strains did not contain branched GDGT lipids. Thus, the source organism must likely be searched for in other acidobacterial phyla or in another abundant group within the remaining bacteria.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
