Abstract:We explore archaeal distribution and environmental niche differentiation in sedimentary subseafloor habitats of Guaymas Basin and the adjacent Sonora Margin, located in the Gulf of California, México. Specifically, we survey diverse subseafloor habitats on the Guaymas Basin flanking regions that are extending from the spreading center, termed here “off-axis” sites. Sampling locations include (i) control sediments without hydrothermal or seep influence, (ii) Sonora Margin sediments underlying oxygen minimum zon… Show more
