Single cell genomics indicates horizontal gene transfer and viral infections in a deep subsurface Firmicutes population

A major fraction of Earth's prokaryotic biomass dwells in the deep subsurface, where cellular abundances per volume of sample are lower, metabolism is slower, and generation times are longer than those in surface terrestrial and marine environments. How these conditions impact biotic interactio...
