Functional Metagenomic Investigations of Microbial Communities in a Shallow-Sea Hydrothermal System

Little is known about the functional capability of microbial communities in shallow-sea hydrothermal systems (water depth of <200 m). This study analyzed two high-throughput pyrosequencing metagenomic datasets from the vent and the surface water in the shallow-sea hydrothermal system offshore NE...
