Marine Deep Biosphere Microbial Communities Assemble in Near-Surface Sediments in Aarhus Bay

Analyses of microbial diversity in marine sediments have identified a core set of taxa unique to the marine deep biosphere. Previous studies have suggested that these specialized communities are shaped by processes in the surface seabed, in particular that their assembly is associated with the trans...
