ABSTRACT Micritization of marine carbonate grains is an early diagenetic process involving the alteration of the original carbonate fabric and the formation of cryptocrystalline textures through cycles of dissolution and reprecipitation. Microorganisms play a significant role in this process, actively contributing to the formation of constructive and ...

ABSTRACT The ammonia monooxygenase subunit A (amoA) gene has been used to investigate the phylogenetic diversity, spatial distribution and activity of ammonia‐oxidising archaeal (AOA) and bacterial (AOB), which contribute significantly to the nitrogen cycle in various ecosystems. Amplicon sequencing of amoA is a widely used method; however, it produces

Discovering Hidden Archaeal and Bacterial Lipid Producers in a Euxinic Marine System
We investigated the bacterial and archaeal membrane lipids in the Black Sea, focusing on isoprenoidal and branched GDGTs, combining high‐resolution accurate mass/mass spectrometry with metagenomics. Our objective was to identify the potential biological producers of these lipids and to begin understanding their role in microbial adaptation.

A diverse microbiome colonizes the surface of dormant copepod embryos, which can survive for ~200 years in lake sediments. During dormancy, the outer two layers of a five‐layered cyst wall break apart, while the third layer remains undamaged, despite the presence of microbial species with chitinase genes.

This study investigates macroscopic microbial mat structures found in complete anoxic conditions at 70 m depth in a Maldivian Blue Hole. Genome‐resolved metagenomic led to the description of several new taxa with ancient metabolism revealing novel bacterial genera belonging to the order Dehalococcoidales as dominant members of these communities ...
