Metabolic redundancy and specialisation of novel sulfide-oxidizing Sulfurimonas and Sulfurovum along the brine-seawater interface of the Kebrit Deep
These results show how the selective pressures mediated by the sulfidic and hypersaline conditions of Kebrit Deep have resulted in novel, adapted and metabolically redundant Sulfurimonas and Sulfurovum species that contribute to the energy coupling, nutrient turnover and metabolic continuity along the physico-chemical gradient of the BSI.
