only one of the putative verrucomicrobial cellulose degraders identified in this experiment are  closely related to named cultivars (OTU.XX, Table~\ref{tab:cell}) and only XX\% of all verrucomic  robial OTUs found in this study  share at lease 97\% sequence identity with isolates. $^{13}$C-cellulose responding  verrucomicrobial OTUs were primarily classified belonging to the \textit{Spartobacteria} order.   This order was overwhelminly numberically dominant among \textit{Verrucomicrobia} in SSU rRNA   gene surveys of 181 globally distributed soil samples \citep{Bergmann_2011}.  HR-SIP identifies key players in soil C-cycling and \textit{Verrucomicrobia} lineages, given their ubiquity and abundance in soil, may be significant players in global soil cellulose respiration.$^{13}$C-cellulose responding  verrucomicrobial OTUs were primarily classified belonging to the XX family(?). This family  is XX\% abundant in soil samples screen by the Earth Microbiom Project (EMP, CITE) and is  found in XX of XX EMP soil samples (XX\%) and XX of all XX EMP samples (FIGURE).
