When seeps give ANME-SRB the cold shoulder: putative role of denitrification mediated methane oxidation in an Antarctic Cold Seep

Antarctica represents a significant, unresolved, and unstable source of methane to the atmosphere. To advance our understanding of the biological filter of methane in Antarctica, here we identify the taxa and functional genes present during methane oxidation in an Antarctic Methane Seep. Methane oxidation was present in all sediments, including in a non seep control site. Using 16S rRNA analysis…
