Potential autotrophic carbon-fixer and Fe(II)-oxidizer Alcanivorax sp. MM125-6 isolated from Wocan hydrothermal field

The genus Alcanivorax is common in various marine environments, including in hydrothermal fields. They were previously recognized as obligate hydrocarbonoclastic bacteria, but their potential for autotrophic carbon fixation and Fe(II)-oxidation remains largely elusive. In this study, an in situ enri...
