Unraveling Microbial and Functional Gene Dynamics in Deep-Sea Gas Hydrate Sediments: Insights from Metagenomics and Metabolomics

This metagenomics study focuses on functional genes (mcrA, pmoA and nifH) analysis in the intertidal zone of Gwadar, Ormara and SAPT Oyster Rocks, Pakistan, using shotgun sequencing to characterize functional genes related to methanogenesis, methanotrophy and nitrogen cycling. Results will expand knowledge of coastal biogeochemical cycles in the Arabian Sea
