Acid microenvironments in microbial biofilms of antarctic endolithic microecosystems.
Antarctic endolithic microecosystems harbour distinct biofilms. The lithic substrate and the microorganisms comprising these films are intimately linked, leading to complex mineral-microbe interactions. Hence, the microhabitats and microenvironments of these microecosystems are not only determined by the physicochemical features of the lithic substrate, but are also conditioned by the biologica...
متن کاملThreatened Corals Provide Underexplored Microbial Habitats
Contemporary in-depth sequencing of environmental samples has provided novel insights into microbial community structures, revealing that their diversity had been previously underestimated. Communities in marine environments are commonly composed of a few dominant taxa and a high number of taxonomically diverse, low-abundance organisms. However, studying the roles and genomic information of the...
متن کاملTracking microbial habitats in subseafloor sediments.
T hroughout the world’s oceans, the sediments that cover the seafloor, and the cracks and fissures of the basaltic ocean crust, are permeated by microbial life (1, 2). As these bacteria and archaea are mostly not available in laboratory culture and thus elude direct physiological characterization, Jørgensen et al. correlate geochemical regimes in subseafloor sediments with in situ abundance of ...

متن کامل14. Genetic Evidence for Endolithic Microbial Life Colonizing Basaltic Glass/sea Water Interfaces
The majority of the Earth's shallow crust is composed of basalt that erupted on the seafloor and was subsequently altered by chemical exchange with seawater. One aspect of this alteration is the replacement of glass by secondary minerals, including clays. Petrographic thin sections from ODP Holes 504B and 896A revealed characteristic patterns of pitting (channels) at the interface of fresh basa...
