Scientists describe a previously unknown phylum of aquatic Archaea that are likely dependent on partner organisms for growth while potentially being able to conserve some energy by fermentation.
The environmental distribution of the Archaea is distinct from that of the Bacteria, but no single principle provides a satisfactory explanation for their ecological differences. David Valentine ...
Using a long-term multifactor experimental field site researchers showed that experimental warming of a tallgrass prairie ecosystem significantly altered the community structure of soil archaea ...
