Isolation of an archaeon at the prokaryote–eukaryote interface
The origin of eukaryotes remains unclear,,–. Current data suggest that eukaryotes may have
emerged from an archaeal lineage known as 'Asgard'archaea,. Despite the eukaryote-like …

Hadal biosphere: insight into the microbial ecosystem in the deepest ocean on Earth
Hadal oceans at water depths below 6,000 m are the least-explored aquatic biosphere. The
Challenger Deep, located in the western equatorial Pacific, with a water depth of∼ 11 km, is …

Microbial community and geochemical analyses of trans-trench sediments for understanding the roles of hadal environments
Hadal trench bottom (> 6000 m below sea level) sediments harbor higher microbial cell
abundance compared with adjacent abyssal plain sediments. This is supported by the …
