Deep Biosphere: Microbiome of the Deep Terrestrial Subsurface

Microbial Diversity in Ecosystem Sustainability and Biotechnological Applications, 2019
Deep biosphere represents an unexplored realm of planetary life residing underneath the continental and oceanic crusts that constitutes majorly of prokaryotic life forms bacteria and archaea. Microbial communities which reside within various deep subsurface environments form a significant but largely unknown portion of the Earth’s biosphere.

Detection of the deep biosphere in metamorphic rocks from the Chinese continental scientific drilling

Geobiology, 2021
It is generally accepted that there is a vast, well‐populated biosphere in the subsurface, but the depth limit of the terrestrial biosphere has yet to be determined, largely because of the lack of access to the subsurface.

Targeted isolation based on metagenome-assembled genomes reveals a phylogenetically distinct group of thermophilic spirochetes from deep biosphere.

Environmental Microbiology, 2020
Most microorganisms from deep terrestrial subsurface remain yet uncultured. Recent achievements in recovery of metagenome-assembled genomes (MAG) provide clues for improving cultivation via metabolic reconstructions and other genomic characteristics ...

Exploring the deep biosphere

Science China Earth Sciences, 2011
Over the past two decades, scientific drilling into sediments and rocks in the ocean and the continent has revealed the presence of physiologically and phylogenetically complex microbial life in the deep subsurface. Microorganisms, most of which have no cultured or known relatives in the surface biosphere, have been discovered in sediments and rock at ...

Downsizing the Deep Biosphere

Science, 2012
A recent study provides new constraints on the size and distribution of microbial biomass beneath the ocean floor, but key factors remain uncertain.

Deep cold biosphere

Trends in Microbiology, 2001
Recent findings suggest the possibility of a previously unknown ecosystem – a ‘deep, cold biosphere’. US and Russian researchers had previously detected bacteria frozen in ice-core samples from the depths of Lake Vostoc, but newer evidence suggests that microbial communities could be active and living in the Antarctic ice.
