Evidence of vent-adaptation in sponges living at the periphery of hydrotherma...

This study tests the hypothesis that, independent of feeding mode, sponges have adapted to a peripheral vent habitat through association with chemoautotrophic microbes. We used...本研究旨在验证以下假说：无论摄食方式如何，海绵均通过与化能自养微生物（chemoautotrophic microbes）形成共生关系，适应了热液喷口外围生境。本研究采用……
