Benthic protists and fungi of Mediterranean deep hypsersaline anoxic basin redoxcline sediments

Benthic protists and fungi of Mediterranean deep hypsersaline anoxic basin redoxcline sediments

Some of the most extreme marine habitats known are the Mediterranean Deep Hypersaline Anoxic Basins (DHABs; water depth ~3500m). Brines of DHABs are nearly saturated with salt, leading many to suspect they are uninhabitable for eukaryotes. While diverse bacterial and protistan communities are report...
