Bacterial niche-specific genome expansion is coupled with highly frequent gene disruptions in deep-sea sediments.
The complexity and dynamics of microbial metagenomes may be evaluated by genome size, gene duplication and the disruption rate between lineages. In this study, we pyrosequenced the metagenomes of microbes obtained from the brine and sediment of a deep-sea brine pool in the Red Sea to explore the pos...
