Microbial methane turnover at Marmara Sea cold seeps: a combined 16S rRNA and lipid biomarker investigation.
Lipid biomarkers and their stable carbon isotopic composition, as well as 16S rRNA gene sequences, were investigated in sediment cores from active seepage zones in the Sea of Marmara (Turkey) located on the active North Anatolian Fault, to assess processes associated with methane turnover by indigenous microbial communities. Diagnostic (13) C-depleted archaeal lipids of anaerobic methane oxidiz...
متن کاملMicrobial Communities of Deep-Sea Methane Seeps at Hikurangi Continental Margin (New Zealand)
The methane-emitting cold seeps of Hikurangi margin (New Zealand) are among the few deep-sea chemosynthetic ecosystems of the Southern Hemisphere known to date. Here we compared the biogeochemistry and microbial communities of a variety of Hikurangi cold seep ecosystems. These included highly reduced seep habitats dominated by bacterial mats, partially oxidized habitats populated by heterotroph...
متن کاملLarvae from deep-sea methane seeps disperse in surface waters.
Many species endemic to deep-sea methane seeps have broad geographical distributions, suggesting that they produce larvae with at least episodic long-distance dispersal. Cold-seep communities on both sides of the Atlantic share species or species complexes, yet larval dispersal across the Atlantic is expected to take prohibitively long at adult depths. Here, we provide direct evidence that the ...
متن کاملArchaea mediating anaerobic methane oxidation in deep-sea sediments at cold seeps of the eastern Aleutian subduction zone
Cold seeps in the Aleutian deep-sea trench support proli®c benthic communities and generate carbonate precipitates which are dependent on carbon dioxide delivered from anaerobic methane oxidation. This process is active in the anaerobic sediments at the sulfate reduction-methane production boundary and is probably performed by archaea working in syntrophic co-operation with sulfate-reducing bac...
متن کاملMetagenomic 16s rRNA investigation of microbial communities in the Black Sea estuaries in South-West of Ukraine.
The Black Sea estuaries represent interfaces of the sea and river environments. Microorganisms that inhabit estuarine water play an integral role in all biochemical processes that occur there and form unique ecosystems. There are many estuaries located in the Southern-Western part of Ukraine and some of them are already separated from the sea. The aim of this research was to determine the compo...
