Atmospheric chemosynthesis is phylogenetically and geographically widespread and contributes significantly to carbon fixation throughout cold deserts

2021-10-13

Abstract excerpt

<title>Abstract</title> <p>Cold desert soil microbiomes thrive despite severe moisture and nutrient limitations. In Eastern Antarctic soils, hydrogen oxidising bacteria support primary production through a novel carbon fixation process reliant on the chemoautotrophy-associated RuBisCO form IE. Here, biochemical assays show that atmospheric chemosynthesis occurs globally for primary production, contributing signif...
