Bacterial and Archaeal Diversity in Sediments of West Lake Bonney, McMurdo Dry Valleys, Antarctica

ABSTRACT Bacterial and archaeal diversity was examined in a sediment core from Lake Bonney, Antarctica. Members of the Archaea showed both low abundance and diversity, whereas bacterial diversity was moderately high and some phyla were fairly abundant, even in geologically old samples. Microbial div...
