Vertically distinct microbial communities in the Mariana and Kermadec trenches.

Vertically distinct microbial communities in the Mariana and Kermadec trenches.

Hadal trenches, oceanic locations deeper than 6,000 m, are thought to have distinct microbial communities compared to those at shallower depths due to high hydrostatic pressures, topographical funneling of organic matter, and biogeographical isolation. Here we evaluate the hypothesis that hadal tren...
