Energetic and genomic potential for hydrogenotrophic, formatotrophic, and acetoclastic methanogenesis in surface-expressed serpentinized fluids of the Samail Ophiolite

Energetic and genomic potential for hydrogenotrophic, formatotrophic, and acetoclastic methanogenesis in surface-expressed serpentinized fluids of the Samail Ophiolite

Serpentinization, the reaction of water with ultramafic rock, produces reduced, hyperalkaline, and H2-rich fluids that support a variety of hydrogenotrophic microbial metabolisms. Previous work indicates the occurrence of methanogenesis in fluids from the actively serpentinizing Samail Ophiolite in...
