Abstract excerpt
Cosmopolitan microbial lineages are found in anoxic sediments worldwide, but the details about their ecology and evolution remain underexplored. In this study, we identified persistent populations from these cosmopolitan lineages belonging to Planctomycetes, Chloroflexi Atribacteria, and Candidatus Bathyarchaeia from an ~8,000-year sedimentary sequence. To investigate the genomic variations within these...
