Marine microbiomes play a crucial role in oceanic ecosystems, influencing biogeochemical cycles, climate regulation, and marine biodiversity. Accurate characterization of these microbial communities r...
Monitoring marine biodiversity requires approaches capable of capturing its spatial and temporal complexity. DNA metabarcoding coupled with Autonomous Reef Monitoring Structures (ARMS) is increasingly...
Earth's biodiversity is central to ecosystem health and resilience, providing essential functions and services. The Red Sea is a recognised marine biodiversity hotspot with high endemism and unique en...
Octocorals are vital components of tropical, temperate, and cold-water benthic marine ecosystems. Their associated microbiomes, comprising microeukaryotes, prokaryotes, and viruses, are increasingly r...
The escalating threat of antimicrobial resistance (AMR) has created an urgent need for new antimicrobial agents. Antimicrobial peptides (AMPs) are promising alternatives to conventional antibiotics du...
The deep sea is home to a vast and largely unexplored microbial biosphere, along with large amounts of complex organic matter (COM). However, the functional capacity of the deep-sea microbiome to meta...
Secondary adaptation of amphibians to marine environments is exceptionally rare. The crab-eating frog, Fejervarya cancrivora, is the only known amphibian capable of completing its life cycle in intert...
The deep sea, Earth's largest yet least-explored biome, harbors vast microbial diversity. In this issue of Cell Host & Microbe, Guo et al. uncover its hidden functional potential through metagenomics ...
Petroleum pollution poses a significant threat to marine ecosystems, extending its impact to deep-sea environments. Cold seeps represent unique deep-sea ecosystems and are natural hotspots for studyin...
