Microbes are the most abundant form of life on Earth and play crucial roles in carbon and nutrient cycling. Despite their crucial role, our understanding of microbial diversity and physiology on the ocean floor is limited. To address this gap in knowledge, we obtained 55 novel bacterial metagenome-assembled genomes (MAGs) from coastal and deep sea sediments. Phylogenomic analyses revealed they belong to four new and one poorly described bacterial phyla. Comparison of their rRNA genes with public databases revealed they are all globally distributed. These novel bacteria are capable of the anaerobic degradation of polysaccharides and proteins, and the respiration of sulfur and nitrogen. These genomes code for an unusually high proportion (~ 9, and up to 20% per genome) of protein families lacking representatives in public databases. Hundreds of these protein families are predicted to be co-localized with genes for sulfur reduction, nitrogen cycling, energy conservation, and the degradation of organic compounds. These findings expand our understanding of microbial diversity and link previously overlooked gene families with key metabolic processes in the oceans.

A novel mine-used water-pressure sensor is presented in this paper, the configuration, working principle and design of main circuits are introduced in detail. Using pressure sensor, high precision 24 bits A/D converter AD7714 and low power consumption MCU P89LPC932 to complete the water-pressure measurement, and transferred the measuring results to upper computer through M-BUS, realized the stability measurement of high precision and low power consumption.
