Global Distribution Patterns of Dark Matter Fungi in Cold Seep: A Metagenomic Meta-Analysis [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Fungi
Deep-sea cold seep ecosystems, known for their unique geochemical niches and chemosynthetic communities, harbor numerous “dark matter fungi (DMF)” that remain understudied compared to their bacterial and archaeal counterparts. Integrating 105 metagenomic

Heterogeneity of the horizontal environment drives community assemblages and species coexistence of prokaryotic communities in cold seep sediments [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology
IntroductionMicroorganisms play important roles in methane oxidation and carbon turnover of cold seep ecosystem. Although the microbial diversity of cold seep sediments has been reported, the community assembly processes, species coexistence patterns ...

Disentangling the Functional Role of Fungi in Cold Seep Sediment [PDF]

open access: yesMicrobiol Spectr, 2023
Cold seeps are biological oases of the deep sea fueled by methane, sulfates, nitrates, and other inorganic sources of energy. Chemolithoautotrophic bacteria and archaea dominate seep sediment, and their diversity and biogeochemical functions are well ...

Chemosynthetic alphaproteobacterial diazotrophs reside in deep-sea cold-seep bottom waters [PDF]

open access: yesmSystems
Nitrogen (N)-fixing organisms, also known as diazotrophs, play a crucial role in N-limited ecosystems by controlling the production of bioavailable N. The carbon-dominated cold-seep ecosystems are inherently N-limited, making them hotspots of N fixation.

Microbial Communities in and Around the Siboglinid Tubeworms from the South Yungan East Ridge Cold Seep Offshore Southwestern Taiwan at the Northern South China Sea [PDF]

open access: yesMicroorganisms
To date, only a few microbial community studies of cold seeps at the South China Sea (SCS) have been reported. The cold seep dominated by tubeworms was discovered at South Yungan East Ridge (SYER) offshore southwestern Taiwan by miniROV.

High microeukaryotic diversity in the cold-seep sediment [PDF]

open access: yes, 2023
Microeukaryotic diversity, community structure, and their regulating mechanisms remain largely unclear in chemosynthetic ecosystems. Here, using high-throughput sequencing data of 18S rRNA genes, we explored microeukaryotic communities from the Haima ...

The Phylogeny, Metabolic Potentials, and Environmental Adaptation of an Anaerobe, Abyssisolibacter sp. M8S5, Isolated from Cold Seep Sediments of the South China Sea

open access: yesMicroorganisms, 2023
Bacillota are widely distributed in various environments, owing to their versatile metabolic capabilities and remarkable adaptation strategies. Recent studies reported that Bacillota species were highly enriched in cold seep sediments, but their ...

Deep-Sea Carbonates Are a Reservoir of Fossil Microbes Previously Inhabiting Cold Seeps

open access: yesFrontiers in Marine Science, 2021
Carbonates are globally distributed particularly around deep-sea cold seeps. The embedded microbes are fossil records of the past bioprocess but metagenomes of the carbonates have not been fully studied.
