Draft Genome Sequences of Facultative Methylotrophs, Gemmobacter sp. Strain LW1 and Mesorhizobium sp. Strain 1M-11, Isolated from Movile Cave, Romania. [PDF]
Facultative methylotrophs belonging to the genera Gemmobacter and Mesorhizobium were isolated from microbial mat and cave water samples obtained from the Movile Cave ecosystem. Both bacteria can utilize methylated amines as their sole carbon and nitrogen

Bacterial metabolism of methylated amines and identification of novel methylotrophs in Movile Cave. [PDF]
Abstract 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, supporting a complex food web that includes bacteria, fungi and cave ...

Cave Thiovulum (Candidatus Thiovulum stygium) differs metabolically and genomically from marine species. [PDF]
Thiovulum spp. (Campylobacterota) are large sulfur bacteria that form veil-like structures in aquatic environments. The sulfidic Movile Cave (Romania), sealed from the atmosphere for ~5 million years, has several aqueous chambers, some with low ...

A glimpse into the biosynthetic potential and resistome of microbial communities inhabiting sulfidic, chemoautotrophic Movile Cave ecosystem [PDF]
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.

Species of Oniscidea and Araneae from the Movile Cave drillings
Dobrogea represents a biogeographic “crossroad” between bioclimatic provinces with a complex character given by the presence of great numbers of Mediterranean, Pontic, Caucasian, etc., elements.
