Identification of Free-living and Particle-Associated Microbial Communities Present in Hadal regions of the Mariana Trench

Relatively few studies have described the microbial populations present in ultra-deep hadal environments, largely as a result of difficulties associated with sampling. Here we report Illumina-tag V6 16S rRNA sequence-based analyses of the free-living and particle-associated microbial communities rec...
