Deep-Sea Carbonates Are a Reservoir of Fossil Microbes Previously Inhabiting Cold Seeps
Carbonates are globally distributed particularly around deep-sea cold seeps. The embedded microbes are fossil records of the past bioprocess but metagenomes of the carbonates have not been fully studied. In this study, we report microbial community structures and genomes of dominant species in cold-...
