Illuminating Patterns in Dark Microbial Matter: Diversity and Distribution of Fungi and Actinobacteria in Deep-sea Methane Seep Sediments

Creator:

Ardor Bellucci, Lila

Abstract:

Fungi and Actinobacteria are essential actors in global biogeochemical cycles of carbon and nutrients, and have both been recently appreciated for their roles in marine ecosystems. However, the diversity and distribution of these ubiquitous, but low-abundance microbes in deep-sea habitats remains poorly understood, particularly in chemosynthetic habitats such as methane...
