Proliferation of hydrocarbon-degrading microbes at the bottom of the Mariana Trench
Abstract Background The Mariana Trench is the deepest known site in the Earth’s oceans, reaching a depth of ~ 11,000 m at the Challenger Deep. Recent studies reveal that hadal waters harbor distinctive microbial planktonic communities. However, the genetic potential of microbial communities within t...
