Abstract excerpt
Prokaryote diversity has been found to be surprisingly high in cold marine sediments with numerous clades detected spread throughout many phyla. Marine benthic sediment clades are largely ecotypically distinct and autochthonous. Since almost all marine sediment prokaryotic taxa have yet to be cultivated, functionality is currently overwhelmingly cryptic for most benthic prokaryotic taxa except those falling into...
