Two bacteria phylotypes are predominant in the Suiyo seamount hydrothermal plume

Article Abstract:

Hydrothermal circulation activities cause many plumes in deep oceans and the Suiyo seamount is one of the most active submarine volcanoes, which contain active hydrothermal vents. Microbial diversity and population in a hydrothermal plume present inside the caldera of the seamount was explored and results tabulated.
