Intro, 2nd paragraph: I would cancel the sentence about endospores, in the 3rd paragraph it is clearly stated that no endospore-forming A. are known.

Comparison with other domains, table: genome (not gene) structure would be the better title of this line; in the RNA polymerase line, eukaryote column: "several" would be better (I, II, III and mitochondrial are not many, I guess). 2nd paragraph below this table: development of nucleus occurred even after split between A. and eukaryotes!

Relation to eukaryotes, 1st paragraph: what is the similarity in cell structure?? structurally A. are more similar to bacteria, as is pointed out earlier.

Metabolism, 1st paragraph: emphasis on inorganic compounds should be called lithotroph or chemolithotroph, not just chemotroph; 2nd paragraph: oxygen-generating or non-oxygen-generating (as in purple or green bacteria) photosynthesis does not occur....

Metabolism, last paragraph: strictly, retinal, not retinol, is the cofactor.

Significance in technology, 1st paragraph: classical PCR works with Taq polymerase from bacterial (not archaean) strain Thermus aquaticus! Pfu was only applied in PCR later, so PCR does not rely on it!
