Abstract:Microbes active in extremely cold environments are not as well explored as those of other extreme environments. Studies have revealed a substantial microbial diversity and identified cold-specific microbiome molecular functions. We analyzed the metagenomes and metatranscriptomes of twenty snow samples collected during early and late spring in Svalbard, Norway using our computational read-based microbiome function annotation tool, mi-faser. Our results revealed a more diverse microbiome functional capacity and … Show more
