  "summary": "The Southern Ocean harbors diverse marine microbial communities shaped by both local oceanographic conditions and dispersal limitations. However, this knowledge is mainly based on coastal Antarctic sites, whereas circumpolar Antarctic open sea and subantarctic ecosystems remain poorly explored. Here, we characterize marine microbial communities (using 16S rDNA high-throughput sequencing) and…",
