A global perspective on bacterial diversity in the terrestrial deep subsurface [PDF]
Microbiology (United Kingdom), 2023 While recent efforts to catalogue Earth’s microbial diversity have focused upon surface and marine habitats, 12–20% of Earth’s biomass is suggested to exist in the terrestrial deep subsurface, compared to ~1.8% in the deep subseafloor.

The Mystery of Piezophiles: Understudied Microorganisms from the Deep, Dark Subsurface
Microorganisms, 2023 Microorganisms that can withstand high pressure within an environment are termed piezophiles. These organisms are considered extremophiles and inhabit the deep marine or terrestrial subsurface.

The potential for coupled organic and inorganic sulfur cycles across the terrestrial deep subsurface biosphere [PDF]
Nature CommunicationsOrganosulfur compounds (OrgS) are fundamental components of life’s biomass, yet the cycling of these compounds in the terrestrial deep subsurface, one of Earth’s largest ecosystems, has gone relatively unexplored.

Microbial Life in the Deep Subsurface Aquifer Illuminated by Metagenomics [PDF]
Frontiers in Microbiology, 2020 To get insights into microbial diversity and biogeochemical processes in the terrestrial deep subsurface aquifer, we sequenced the metagenome of artesian water collected at a 2.8 km deep oil exploration borehole 5P in Western Siberia, Russia. We obtained

Sustainable co-production of 1,3-PDO, ethanol and H2 from glycerol via dark fermentation by Citrobacter telavivensis T1.2D-1 isolated from the deep subsurface [PDF]
Frontiers in Bioengineering and BiotechnologyThe increasing production of biodiesel has led to a surplus of glycerol, a polluting by-product in need of valorization. In this study, we demonstrate that Citrobacter telavivensis T1.2D-1, an extremophile bacterium isolated from the Iberian Pyrite Belt,
