Microbiomes of Hadal Fishes across Trench Habitats Contain Similar Taxa and Known Piezophiles
ABSTRACT Hadal snailfishes are the deepest-living fishes in the ocean, inhabiting trenches from depths of ∼6,000 to 8,000 m. While the microbial communities in trench environments have begun to be characterized, the microbes associated with hadal megafauna remain relatively unknown. Here, we describ...
