Deep-Sea Hydrothermal Vent Viruses Compensate for Microbial Metabolism in Virus-Host Interactions
Viruses are believed to be responsible for the mortality of host organisms. However, some recent investigations reveal that viruses may be essential for host survival. To date, it remains unclear whether viruses are beneficial or harmful to their hosts. To reveal the roles of viruses in the virus-host interactions, viromes and microbiomes of sediment samples from three deep-sea hydrothermal ven...
متن کاملGenetic diversity of archaea in deep-sea hydrothermal vent environments.
Molecular phylogenetic analysis of naturally occurring archaeal communities in deep-sea hydrothermal vent environments was carried out by PCR-mediated small subunit rRNA gene (SSU rDNA) sequencing. As determined through partial sequencing of rDNA clones amplified with archaea-specific primers, the archaeal populations in deep-sea hydrothermal vent environments showed a great genetic diversity, ...
متن کاملSulfide ameliorates metal toxicity for deep-sea hydrothermal vent archaea.
The chemical stress factors for microbial life at deep-sea hydrothermal vents include high concentrations of heavy metals and sulfide. Three hyperthermophilic vent archaea, the sulfur-reducing heterotrophs Thermococcus fumicolans and Pyrococcus strain GB-D and the chemolithoautotrophic methanogen Methanocaldococcus jannaschii, were tested for survival tolerance to heavy metals (Zn, Co, and Cu) ...
متن کاملMercury adaptation among bacteria from a deep-sea hydrothermal vent.
Since deep-sea hydrothermal vent fluids are enriched with toxic metals, it was hypothesized that (i) the biota in the vicinity of a vent is adapted to life in the presence of toxic metals and (ii) metal toxicity is modulated by the steep physical-chemical gradients that occur when anoxic, hot fluids are mixed with cold oxygenated seawater. We collected bacterial biomass at different distances f...
متن کاملA deep-sea hydrothermal vent community dominated by Stauromedusae
A dense population of stauromedusan scyphozoans (morphologically similar to previously described species within the genus Lucernaria) was encountered in a previously undocumented area of hydrothermal activity along the crest of the East Pacific Rise (Lat. 20 50.304'N; Long. 109 05.422'W; depth of 2605 m). A few galatheid {Munidopsis subsquamosa) and bythograeid {Bythograea thermydron) crabs and...
