Niche specialisation and aerobic trace gas utilising microbes in Movile Cave

open access: yesKarst Science Days Symposium Proceedings
The isolation of cave ecosystems from dynamic surface environments gives them relatively stable conditions, allowing underlying features of the cave, such as geochemistry, hydrology and microbial biogeochemical cycling to be the driving influences on the

A new species of the genus Archiboreoiulus Brolemann, 1921 (Diplopoda, Julida) from Movile Cave (Southern Dobrogea, Romania).

Zootaxa, 2020
Up to the present, the genus Archiboreoiulus included only two species: A. sollaudi from France and A. pallidus with a wide European distribution range. Here we describe a previously unknown species of the genus Archiboreoiulus, A.

From morphology to phylogeny: Adaptive traits of Eucyclops subterraneus scythicus in the sulfidic waters of Movile Cave

Karst Science Days Symposium Proceedings
Aquatic ecosystems characterized by naturally elevated concentrations of hydrogen sulfide (H2S) occur worldwide, in both marine and freshwater environments, where H2S is generated through geochemical or biological processes (Engel, 2007; Greenway et al.,

Dobrogea: Movile Cave

Cave and Karst Systems of Romania, 2018
Movile Cave (SE Romania) is the first known subterranean chemosynthesis-based ecosystem. Sulfur- and methane-oxidizing, as well as nitrifying microorganisms, form the base of the food web in this peculiar ecosystem. The bacteria use mainly oxygen from the cave’s atmosphere as electron acceptor to oxidize H2S, CH4, and NH4+, which originate from the ...

Microbiology of Movile Cave—A Chemolithoautotrophic Ecosystem

Geomicrobiology Journal, 2014
Discovered in 1986, Movile Cave is an unusual cave ecosystem sustained by in situ chemoautotrophic primary production. The cave is completely isolated from the surface and the primary energy sources are hydrogen sulfide and methane released from hydrothermal fluids.

Analysis of methanotrophic bacteria in Movile Cave by stable isotope probing.

Environmental Microbiology, 2003
Summary Movile Cave is an unusual groundwater ecosystem that is supported by in situ chemoautotrophic production. The cave atmosphere contains 1–2% methane (CH 4 ), although much higher concentrations are found in gas bubbles that keep

Preliminary Evidence for a Sulphur Cycle in Movile Cave, Romania

Acta Biotechnologica, 2003
AbstractIn order to investigate the food chain and energy balance of the chemolithoautotrophically‐based ecosystem of the sulphur spring in Movile Cave as a model system for extraterrestrial life, a first sampling campaign was done. Microbial diversity and activity were analysed by MPN‐enumeration methods and microcalorimetry, respectively. In addition,

Life cycle and calculation of the intrinsic rate of natural increase of two bacterivorous nematodes, Panagrolaimus sp. and Poikilolaimus sp. from chemoautotrophic Movile Cave, Romania

Nematology, 2007
AbstractThe life cycle and somatic growth of two bacterivorous nematodes, Panagrolaimus sp. and Poikilolaimus sp., isolated from chemoautotrophic microbial mats in Movile Cave, Romania, were studied in monoxenic cultures at 20°C with Escherichia coli as the food source.
