Flourishing deep-sea AAP bacteria detected by flow cytometric sorting and molecular analysis.

Pigmented bacteria cells, including aerobic anoxygenic phototrophic (AAP) bacteria, contribute significantly to secondary production and aquatic carbon cycling but their distribution in the deep sea is still not well understood, especially in the South China Sea. In this study, microscopic, flow cyt...
