Anaerobic degradation of organic carbon supports uncultured microbial populations in estuarine sediments
Abstract Background A large proportion of prokaryotic microbes in marine sediments remains uncultured, hindering our understanding of their ecological functions and metabolic features. Recent environmental metagenomic studies suggested that many of these uncultured microbes contribute to the degrada...
