The microbiology of deep-sea hydrothermal vent plumes: ecological and biogeographic linkages to seafloor and water column habitats

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2013
Hydrothermal plumes are an important yet understudied component of deep-sea vent microbial ecosystems. The significance of plume microbial processes can be appreciated from three perspectives: (1) mediation of plume biogeochemistry, (2) dispersal of ...

Subsurface microbial habitats on Mars [PDF]

open access: yes
We developed scenarios for shallow and deep subsurface cryptic niches for microbial life on Mars. Such habitats could have considerably prolonged the persistence of life on Mars as surface conditions became increasingly inhospitable.

Nitrate and ammonia as nitrogen sources for deep subsurface microorganisms

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2015
We investigated the N-utilizing bacterial community in anoxic brackish groundwater of the low and intermediate level nuclear waste repository cave in Olkiluoto, Finland, at 100 m depth using 15N-based stable isotope probing (SIP) and enrichment with 14 ...

Bioremediation techniques–classification based on site of application: principles, advantages, limitations and prospects

open access: yesWorld Journal of Microbiology & Biotechnology, 2016
Environmental pollution has been on the rise in the past few decades owing to increased human activities on energy reservoirs, unsafe agricultural practices and rapid industrialization.

Targeting deeply-sourced seeps along the Central Volcanic Zone [version 1; peer review: 2 approved, 1 approved with reservations]

open access: yesOpen Research Europe
At convergent margins, plates collide producing a subduction process. When an oceanic plate collides with a continental plate, the denser (i.e., oceanic) plate subducts beneath the less dense (continental) plate.

Microbiota in the coelomic fluid of two common coastal starfish species and characterization of an abundant Helicobacter-related taxon

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2017
Marine invertebrates associate with diverse microorganisms. Microorganisms even inhabit coelomic fluid (CF), namely, the fluid filling the main body cavity of echinoderms. The CF microbiota potentially impacts host health and disease.

Energy Gradients Structure Microbial Communities Across Sediment Horizons in Deep Marine Sediments of the South China Sea [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
The deep marine subsurface is a heterogeneous environment in which the assembly of microbial communities is thought to be controlled by a combination of organic matter deposition, electron acceptor availability, and sedimentology.

Activity and phylogenetic diversity of sulfate-reducing microorganisms in low-temperature subsurface fluids within the upper oceanic crust

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2015
The basaltic ocean crust is the largest aquifer system on Earth, yet the rates of biological activity in this environment are unknown. Low-temperature (
