Bacterial metabolism of methylated amines and identification of novel methylotrophs in Movile Cave. [PDF]
ISME J, 2015 Movile Cave, Romania, is an unusual underground ecosystem that has been sealed off from the outside world for several million years and is sustained by non-phototrophic carbon fixation. Methane and sulfur-oxidising bacteria are the main primary producers,

A new cave-dwelling species of the genus Geophilus Leach, 1814 (Chilopoda: Geophilomorpha) from the chemoautotrophic-based Movile Cave (Southern Dobrogea, Romania) [PDF]
The European Zoological JournalGeophilus zagreus sp. nov., a troglomorphic geophilid endemic to the Movile Cave sulfidic groundwater ecosystem, is described and illustrated. It is distinguished from other European Geophilus species by a high number of coxal pores on the ventral side ...

Niche specialisation and aerobic trace gas utilising microbes in Movile Cave
Karst Science Days Symposium ProceedingsThe 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

Life without light: microbial diversity and evidence of sulfur- and ammonium-based chemolithotrophy in Movile Cave [PDF]
ISME Journal, 2009 Abstract Microbial diversity in Movile Cave (Romania) was studied using bacterial and archaeal 16S rRNA gene sequence and functional gene analyses, including ribulose-1,5-bisphosphate carboxylase/oxygenase (RuBisCO), soxB (sulfate thioesterase/thiohydrolase) and amoA (ammonia monooxygenase). Sulfur oxidizers from both Gammaproteobacteria

A glimpse into the biosynthetic potential and resistome of microbial communities inhabiting sulfidic, chemoautotrophic Movile Cave ecosystem [PDF]
ARPHA Conference Abstracts, 2022 Background: Microbial secondary metabolites (SM), especially those produced by soil microorganisms, have been a valuable source of antibiotics, antitumor agents, pigments, growth-promoting substances, etc., with tremendous market potential.

Methanotrophy in Movile Cave [PDF]
, 2014 Movile Cave is an isolated cave ecosystem that receives no input of photosynthetically fixed carbon. Instead, carbon is primarily fixed through light- independent bacterial processes such as chemolithoautotrophy and methanotrophy.

Fauna of Oribatid mites (Acari, Oribatida) from the Movile Cave area (Dobrogea, Romania) [PDF]
Travaux de l'Institut de Speologie Emile Racovitza, 2010 The paper discusses the results of the investigations performed on the oribatid fauna collected from the Movile Cave area. 35 species, belonging to 25 genera and 17 families have been identified; among them 2 genera and 6 species are new for the Romanian
