“<italic toggle="yes">Candidatus</italic> Ethanoperedens,” a Thermophilic Genus of <italic toggle="yes">Archaea</italic> Mediating the Anaerobic Oxidation of Ethane

ABSTRACT Cold seeps and hydrothermal vents deliver large amounts of methane and other gaseous alkanes into marine surface sediments. Consortia of archaea and partner bacteria thrive on the oxidation of these alkanes and its coupling to sulfate reduction. The inherently slow growth of the involved or...
