title: Sulfur and Methane-Oxidizing Microbial Community in a Terrestrial Mud Volcano Revealed by Metagenomics
abstract: Mud volcanoes are prominent geological structures where fluids and gases from the deep subsurface are discharged along a fracture network in tectonically active regions. Microbial communities responsible for sulfur and methane cycling and organic transformation in terrestrial mud volcanoes remain poorly characterized. Using a metagenomics approach, we analyzed the microbial community of bubbling fluids retrieved from an active mud volcano in eastern Crimea. The microbial community was dominated
