Global distribution of serpentinization-influenced environments that have been1412 investigated microbiologically and those that hosted 70 publicly available shotgun1413 metagenomes used in the meta-analysis of this review. Geologic systems are indicated by1414 points and abbreviations on the map, with those in green hosting metagenomes that were used in1415 the meta-analysis of this review. Bottom left insert shows the pH distribution of water samples1416 from which the metagenomes were derived, as reported by the original publication. Additional1417 information for metagenomes is shown in Supplementary Table 1. Abbreviations are defined as1418 follows (and further identified in Supplementary Table 1).

The Microbial Ecology of Serpentinites

by Keith CowingNovember 14, 2024

Serpentinization, the collective set of geochemical reactions initiated by the hydration of ultramafic rock, has occurred throughout Earth history and is inferred to occur on several planets and moons in […]
