Metapangenomic investigation provides insight into niche differentiation of methanogenic populations from the subsurface serpentinizing environment, Samail Ophiolite, Oman
Serpentinization reactions produce highly reduced waters that have hyperalkaline pH and that can have high concentrations of H2 and CH4. Putatively autotrophic methanogenic archaea have been identified in the subsurface waters of the Samail Ophiolite, Sultanate of Oman, though the strategies to over...
