There are several models of the Branching order of bacterial phyla, the most cited of these was proposed in 1987 paper by Carl Woese.[1] This cladogram was later expanded by Rappé and Giovanoni in 2003 to include newly discovered phyla.[2] Clear names are added in parentheses, see list of bacterial phyla.
