Metagenomic insights into the functions of microbial communities in sulfur-rich sediment of a shallow-water hydrothermal vent off Kueishan Island

Hydrothermal vent (HTV) systems are important habitats for understanding the biological processes of extremophiles on Earth and their relative contributions to material and energy cycles in the ocean. Current understanding on hydrothermal systems have been primarily focused on deep-sea HTVs, and lit...
