Implications of a short carbon pulse on biofilm formation on mica schist in microcosms with deep crystalline bedrock groundwater
Microbial life in the deep subsurface occupies rock surfaces as attached communities and biofilms. Previously, epilithic Fennoscandian deep subsurface bacterial communities were shown to host genetic potential, especially for heterotrophy and sulfur cycling. Acetate, methane, and methanol link multi...
