The Microbiology and Geochemistry of the Shallow-Water Hydrothermal Vents of the Gulf of Naples, Italy. [PDF]

Environ Microbiol
This study investigated the interplay between fluid geochemistry and microbial diversity in the shallow‐water hydrothermal vents of the gulf of Naples, Italy. We found that hydrothermal fluid chemistry and the geological settings where the vents are hosted play a key role in shaping microbial distribution.

The genome of deep-sea vent chemolithoautotroph Thiomicrospira crunogena XCL-2.

PLoS Biology, 2006
Presented here is the complete genome sequence of Thiomicrospira crunogena XCL-2, representative of ubiquitous chemolithoautotrophic sulfur-oxidizing bacteria isolated from deep-sea hydrothermal vents. This gammaproteobacterium has a single chromosome (2,

Nitrosophilus alvini gen. nov., sp. nov., a hydrogen-oxidizing chemolithoautotroph isolated from a deep-sea hydrothermal vent in the East Pacific Rise, inferred by a genome-based taxonomy of the phylum "Campylobacterota". [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2020
A novel bacterium, strain EPR55-1T, was isolated from a deep-sea hydrothermal vent on the East Pacific Rise. The cells were motile rods. Growth was observed at temperatures between 50 and 60°C (optimum, 60°C), at pH values between 5.4 and 8.6 (optimum ...

Phylogenetically and metabolically diverse active carbon-fixing microbes reside in mangrove sediments [PDF]

Microbiome
Background Mangroves are hotspots of carbon sequestration in transitional zones between marine and terrestrial ecosystems. Microbially driven dark carbon fixation (DCF) is prominent in sediments, yet our understanding of the DCF process across this ...

Physiological and Genomic Characterization of a Novel Obligately Chemolithoautotrophic, Sulfur-Oxidizing Bacterium of Genus Thiomicrorhabdus Isolated from a Coastal Sediment

Microorganisms, 2023
Thiomicrorhabdus species, belonging to the family Piscirickettsiaceae in the phylum Pseudomonadotav are usually detected in various sulfur-rich marine environments. However, only a few bacteria of Thiomicrorhabdus have been isolated, and their ecological

A Large-Scale Genome-Based Survey of Acidophilic Bacteria Suggests That Genome Streamlining Is an Adaption for Life at Low pH

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2022
The genome streamlining theory suggests that reduction of microbial genome size optimizes energy utilization in stressful environments. Although this hypothesis has been explored in several cases of low-nutrient (oligotrophic) and high-temperature ...

Comparative Genomics on Cultivated and Uncultivated Freshwater and Marine “Candidatus Manganitrophaceae” Species Implies Their Worldwide Reach in Manganese Chemolithoautotrophy

mBio, 2022
Chemolithoautotrophic manganese oxidation has long been theorized but only recently demonstrated in a bacterial coculture. The majority member of the coculture, “Candidatus Manganitrophus noduliformans,” is a distinct but not yet isolated lineage in the ...

Seeing the forest for the genes: using metagenomics to infer the aggregated traits of microbial communities [PDF]

, 2014
Most environments harbor large numbers of microbial taxa with ecologies that remain poorly described and characterizing the functional capabilities of whole communities remains a key challenge in microbial ecology.
