Maximum likelihood phylogenomic tree of 381 cyanobacterial genomes, including newly sequenced genomes labeled in bold. The tree was inferred from 46,754 unambiguously aligned sites under the best-fit model (LG+F+I+R10) and

A sketch of the proposed scenario. Oxidized planetesimals decay to near 1 au, accreting onto proto-Earth and proto-Venus as well as forming Mars. Some oxidized planetesimals and aubrite-like planetesimals remain

Planets composed of iron, rock, and water. Illustrations not to scale. The planet model on the left-hand side develops a shallow layer of pure water, while the majority of the

C.1: Same as Figure 4 but for the tidal temperature. These values are compared with the equilibrium temperature of all planets (full black circles) and the brightness temperature of T-1b

The multiple roles of methanogens in the modern-day carbon cycle. Processes shown in red contribute to greenhouse gas production. Part of the methane is removed through microbial methane oxidation (A)MO
