Global patterns of diversity and metabolism of microbial communities in deep-sea hydrothermal vent deposits

Abstract Background When deep-sea hydrothermal fluids mix with cold oxygenated fluids, minerals precipitate out of solution and form hydrothermal deposits. These actively venting deep-sea hydrothermal deposits support a rich diversity of thermophilic microorganisms which are involved in a range of c...
