Methane-oxidizing bacteria are characterized by their capability to grow on methane as sole
source of carbon and energy. Cultivation-dependent and-independent methods have …

Chemosynthetic symbioses between bacteria and marine invertebrates were discovered 30
years ago at hydrothermal vents on the Galapagos Rift. Remarkably, it took the discovery of …

Here, we present ultragentle soft robotic actuators capable of gras** delicate specimens
of gelatinous marine life. Although state-of-the-art soft robotic manipulators have …

Microbial interaction is an integral component of microbial ecology studies, yet the role,
extent, and relevance of microbial interaction in community functioning remains unclear …

The shrimp Rimicaris exoculata from hydrothermal vents on the Mid‐Atlantic Ridge (MAR)
harbours bacterial epibionts on specialized appendages and the inner surfaces of its gill …

Species' response to climate change is already occurring and managers require scenario
planning with tangible actions for effective conservation. We address this need by examining …

Deep-sea hydrothermal vent fields are globally rare (abundant in numbers, but extremely
small in area) and are rich in extraordinary life based on chemosynthesis rather than …

The shrimp Rimicaris exoculata dominates several hydrothermal vent ecosystems of the Mid-
Atlantic Ridge and is thought to be a primary consumer harbouring a chemoautotrophic …

Life at deep-sea hydrothermal vents depends on chemolithoautotrophic microorganisms as
primary producers mediating the transfer of energy from hydrothermal fluids to higher trophic …

Rimicaris exoculata dominates the megafauna of several Mid-Atlantic Ridge hydrothermal
sites. Its gut is full of sulphides and iron-oxide particles and harbours microbial communities …
