Anaerobic Degradation of Non-Methane Alkanes by “<italic toggle="yes">Candidatus</italic> Methanoliparia” in Hydrocarbon Seeps of the Gulf of Mexico

ABSTRACT Crude oil and gases in the seabed provide an important energy source for subsurface microorganisms. We investigated the role of archaea in the anaerobic degradation of non-methane alkanes in deep-sea oil seeps from the Gulf of Mexico. We identified microscopically the ethane and short-chain...
