DNA Research, 2022 Abstract Various microorganisms exist in environments, and each of which has an optimal growth temperature (OGT). The relationship between genomic information and OGT of each species has long been studied, and one such study revealed that OGT of prokaryotes can be accurately predicted based on the fraction of seven ...
