Abstract excerpt
AIMS: The ecological characteristics of the deep-sea amoA-encoding archaea (AEA) are largely unsolved. Our aim was to study the diversity, structure and distribution of the AEA community in the sediments of the tropical West Pacific Continental Margin, to develop a general view of the AEA biogeography in the deep-sea extreme environment. METHODS AND RESULTS: Archaeal amoA clone libraries were constructed. Diverse...
