The deep-sea shrimp, Aristeus alcocki Ramadan, 1938, is an economically valuable species belonging to the family Aristeidae under the superfamily Penaeoidea. In this study, we report the complete mito...
Iron is one of the most important elements of the Earth, yet its bioavailability is limited in oceanic environments. In this context, deep-sea hydrothermal ecosystems represent one of the major source...
Symbiotic relationships are ubiquitous across nature and play key roles in the maintenance of biodiversity and ecosystem function. The Myzostomida are an enigmatic clade of marine annelids that live a...
The dragonfishes and allies (Stomiiformes) are among the most species rich and ecologically important clades of deep-sea fishes. Within the Stomiiformes, the marine hatchetfishes (Sternoptychidae) are...
Bacterial adaptation to fluctuations in salinity includes the intracellular accumulation of organic compounds called compatible solutes (CS) such as the amino acid derivatives ectoine and 5-hydroxyect...
A facultatively anaerobic, thermophilic, Gram-negative bacterium, strain sy37T, isolated from a deep-sea hydrothermal field and belonging to the candidate phylum WOR-3, was characterized in detail. Th...
AbstractNudibranchs of the genus Spurilla (Aeolidiidae) are currently represented worldwide by five species: S. braziliana, S. croisicensis, S. dupontae, S. neapolitana, and S. sargassicola. Two of th...
A novel Gram-stain-negative, non-flagellated, non-motile, rod-shaped bacterial strain, designated 502str34T, was isolated from deep-sea sediment. The strain was positive for oxidase, catalase and urea...
Natural products from marine and terrestrial organisms provide an important resource for medicinal chemistry and drug discovery. Defined as occurring at depths greater than 200 m, most of the ocean, b...
The family Deimatidae is widely distributed throughout the deep sea but remains poorly represented by both morphological and molecular data. During a 2022 scientific expedition to the Ninety East Ridg...
Here we report the microbiome composition and lipid (molecular and isotopic) profile of gills from Archivesica sp. Atacama., a new species of deep-sea bivalve family Vesicomyidae collected at 2839 m d...
