Marine archaea and archaeal viruses under global change [version 1; referees: 2 approved] [PDF]
Global change is altering oceanic temperature, salinity, pH, and oxygen concentration, directly and indirectly influencing marine microbial food web structure and function.

Exploring Marine Planktonic Archaea: Then and Now [PDF]
In 1977, Woese and Fox leveraged molecular phylogenetic analyses of ribosomal RNAs and identified a new microbial domain of life on Earth, the Archaebacteria (now known as Archaea).

Contributions of single-cell genomics to our understanding of planktonic marine archaea [PDF]
Single-cell genomics has transformed many fields of biology, marine microbiology included. Here, we consider the impact of single-cell genomics on a specific group of marine microbes-the planktonic marine archaea.

Association of marine archaea with the digestive tracts of two marine fish species [PDF]
Recent studies have shown that archaea which were always thought to live under strict anoxic or extreme environmental conditions are also present in cold, oxygenated seawater, soils, the digestive tract of a holothurian deep-sea-deposit feeder, and a ...

Metabolic activities of marine ammonia‐oxidizing archaea orchestrated by quorum sensing [PDF]
Ammonia‐oxidizing archaea (AOA) play crucial roles in marine carbon and nitrogen cycles by fixing inorganic carbon and performing the initial step of nitrification. Evaluation of carbon and nitrogen metabolism popularly relies on functional genes such as

Characterizing Chemoautotrophy and Heterotrophy in Marine Archaea and Bacteria With Single-Cell Multi-isotope NanoSIP [PDF]
Characterizing and quantifying in situ metabolisms remains both a central goal and challenge for environmental microbiology. Here, we used a single-cell, multi-isotope approach to investigate the anabolic activity of marine microorganisms, with an ...

Diverse viruses of marine archaea discovered using metagenomics
International audienceDuring the past decade, metagenomics became a method of choice for the discovery of novel viruses. However, host assignment for uncultured viruses remains challenging, especially for archaeal viruses, which are grossly undersampled ...

Particle partitioning and geography drive divergent microbial assembly and network connectivity in coastal South China Sea [PDF]
A pronounced nutrient gradient spans from the eutrophic Pearl River Estuary (PRE) to the oligotrophic Northern South China Sea (NSCS), yet its influence on microbial community distribution and cross-domain interactions remains poorly understood. Here, we

Marine Planktonic Archaea Take Up Amino Acids [PDF]
Archaea are traditionally thought of as “extremophiles,” but recent studies have shown that marine planktonic Archaea make up a surprisingly large percentage of ocean midwater microbial communities, up to 60% of the total prokaryotes.

Marine archaea and their functional networks in oceanic biogeochemical cycling
Marine archaea are nowadays recognized as central elements in ocean food webs, playing key roles in global nitrogen cycling and other biogeochemical processes. Metabolic diversity enables marine archaea to exist in environments from nutrient-poor surface
