    • Aerobic microbial communities in the sediments of a marine oxygen minimum zone 

      Bhattacharya, S.; Roy, C.; Mandal, Subhrangshu; Sarkar, J.; Rameez, M.J.; Mondal, N.; Mapder, T.; Chatterjee, Sumit; Pyne, P.; Alam, M.; Haldar, P.K.; Roy, R.; Fernandes, S.; Peketi, A.; Chakraborty, R.; Mazumdar, A.; Ghosh, W. (Oxford University Press (OUP), 2020)
      The ecology of aerobic microorganisms is never explored in marine oxygen minimum zone (OMZ) sediments. Here we reveal aerobic bacterial communities along ~3�m sediment-horizons of the eastern Arabian Sea OMZ. Sulfide-containing ...
    • Geomicrobial dynamics of Trans-Himalayan sulfur-borax spring system reveals mesophilic bacteria's resilience to high heat 

      Roy, C.; Mondal, N.; Peketi, A.; Fernandes, S.; Mapder, T.; Volvoikar, S.P.; Haldar, P.K.; Nandi, N.; Bhattacharya, T.; Mazumdar, A.; Chakraborty, R.; Ghosh, W. (Springer, 2020)
      Geomicrobiology of sulfur-boron-dominated, neutral-pH hydrothermal systems was revealed in a Trans-Himalayan spring named Lotus Pond, located at 4436 m, in Puga Valley, Ladakh (India), where water boils at 85°C. Water ...
    • Microbiome and ecology of a hot spring-microbialite system on the Trans-Himalayan Plateau 

      Roy, C.; Rameez, M.J.; Haldar, P.K.; Peketi, A.; Mondal, N.; Bakshi, U.; Mapder, T.; Pyne, P.; Fernandes, S.; Bhattacharya, S.; Roy, R.; Mandal, Subhrangshu; ONeill, W.K.; Mazumdar, A.; Mukhopadhyay, S.K.; Mukherjee, Ambarish; Chakraborty, Ranadhir; Hallsworth, J.E.; Ghosh, Wriddhiman (Nature Research, 2020)
      Little is known about life in the boron-rich hot-springs of Trans-Himalayas. Here, we explore the geomicrobiology of a 4438-m-high spring which emanates ~70 °C-water from a boratic microbialite called Shivlinga. Due to low ...
