Benthic archaea as potential sources of tetraether membrane lipids in sediments across an oxygen minimum zone
<p>Benthic archaea comprise a significant part of the total prokaryotic biomass in marine sediments. Recent genomic surveys suggest they are largely involved in anaerobic processing of organic matter, but the distribution and abundance of these archaeal groups are still largely unknown. Arc...
