Sediment cores taken from Great SlaveLake, Canada, were analysed to investigate theirmetabolically active microbial populations and geochemistry. The amplification of cDNA detectedmetabolically active bacterial (50 separate bands)and archaeal (49 separate band) communities. The bacterial communities...
