Mixing of meteoric and geothermal fluids supports hyperdiverse chemosynthetic hydrothermal communities
Chemosynthetic microbial communities in hydrothermal environments receiving meteoric and geothermal fluids are understudied. Here, Colman et al. use metagenomics to study one such community from a hot spring at Yellowstone National Park, revealing exceptional biodiversity and unique functional poten...
