"Scientists have discovered a completely new branch on the tree of life. This “supergroup” contains an incredibly diverse range of predatory microbes that are extremely different genetically from any other form of life on Earth."
“This is an ancient branch of the tree of life that is roughly as diverse as the animal and fungi kingdoms combined, and no one knew it was there,”
I"m not suggesting these organisms as the cause of ME, but I find it amazing that something so vast has only been discovered recently. Could we have diseases from these organisms, which won't be detected by today's medical tests because no one has known to look for them? It's almost a sure thing that there are new medicines to be discovered from them.
