Uncultivated microbes in need of their own taxonomy
KT Konstantinidis, R Rosselló-Móra… - The ISME journal, 2017 - academic.oup.com
The great majority of microbial species remains uncultured, severely limiting their taxonomic
characterization and thus communication among scientists. Although Candidatus was …

Biogeochemical controls on coastal hypoxia
Aquatic environments experiencing low-oxygen conditions have been described as hypoxic,
suboxic, or anoxic zones; oxygen minimum zones; and, in the popular media, the misnomer …

Microbial ecology of the dark ocean above, at, and below the seafloor
The majority of life on Earth—notably, microbial life—occurs in places that do not receive
sunlight, with the habitats of the oceans being the largest of these reservoirs. Sunlight …
