Physiological Differentiation within a Single-Species Biofilm Fueled by Serpentinization

ABSTRACT Carbonate chimneys at the Lost City hydrothermal field are coated in biofilms dominated by a single phylotype of archaea known as Lost City Methanosarcinales. In this study, we have detected surprising physiological complexity in single-species biofilms, which is typically indicative of mul...
