Comparative Genomics of Thaumarchaeota From Deep-Sea Sponges Reveal Their Niche Adaptation

Thaumarchaeota account for a large portion of microbial symbionts in deep-sea sponges and are even dominant in some cases. In this study, we investigated three new sponge-associated Thaumarchaeota from the deep West Pacific Ocean. Thaumarchaeota were found to be the most dominant phylum in this spon...
