  "summary": "The SAR11 clade, also known as the order Candidatus Pelagibacterales, is among the most abundant bacterial lineages in the ocean and plays central roles in marine biogeochemical cycles. However, many SAR11 genes remain functionally uncharacterized, highlighting the need for a comprehensive, integrated catalog that supports genomic, functional, and ecological analyses across the clade. Here, we…",
