    • Evidence for the Role of Endosymbionts in Regional-Scale Habitat Partitioning by Hydrothermal Vent Symbioses 

      Beinart, Roxanne Abra; Sanders, Jon Gregory; Faure, Baptiste; Sylva, Sean P.; Lee, Raymond W.; Becker, Erin L.; Gartman, Amy; Luther, George W.; Seewald, Jeffrey S.; Fisher, Charles R.; Girguis, Peter R. (Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 2012)
      Deep-sea hydrothermal vents are populated by dense communities of animals that form symbiotic associations with chemolithoautotrophic bacteria. To date, our understanding of which factors govern the distribution of ...

    • Metatranscriptomic Analysis of Sulfur Oxidation Genes in the Endosymbiont of Solemya Velum 

      Stewart, Frank James; Dmytrenko, Oleg; DeLong, Edward F.; Cavanaugh, Colleen Marie (Frontiers Media SA, 2011)
      Thioautotrophic endosymbionts in the Domain Bacteria mediate key sulfur transformations in marine reducing environments. However, the molecular pathways underlying symbiont metabolism and the extent to which these pathways ...
