Abstract:Thermoplasmata archaea, renowned for their acidophilic and thermophilic traits, have been implicated in methanogenic metabolism across diverse environments. However, their metabolic capabilities in nonacidic settings remain understudied. This metagenomic investigation unveils the microbiome dynamics and metabolic processes within nonacidic estuary-ocean sediments across 19 sites (seven groups) in the Pearl River Estuary and South China Sea regions. Remarkably, the microbiomes exhibited rapid adaptation and com… Show more
