New paper from my second PostDoc is published!

Novak et al.: Sulfur disproportionation occurs globally across anoxic habitats and has multiple mechanisms of independent evolutionary origin https://academic.oup.com/ismej/advance-article/doi/10.1093/ismejo/wrag042/8503335

Some #bacteria are able to gain energy by metabolizing elemental #sulfur alone—no other chemical needed. We investigate which genes may be responsible for this unique #metabolism and speculate about its evolutionary origins.

🪸Our new paper led by Lily Böhringer is out: Benthic megafauna from @awi #HAUSGARTEN Observatory in the #Arctic #DeepSea went through significant changes. From 2002-2021, selected taxa populations declined ranging from 28% for crinoids to 93% for soft corals.
