Metagenome-assembled genomes of bacterial communities in the eastern Southwest Indian Ridge, Indian Ocean
T. Jabir, S. Venkatachalam, L. Surya Prakash

TL;DR
This study identifies 24 high-quality bacterial genomes from deep-sea hydrothermal vents in the Indian Ocean, revealing their roles in chemosynthesis.
Contribution
The paper provides novel metagenome-assembled genomes from a previously understudied hydrothermal vent region.
Findings
24 high-quality MAGs were recovered from the 67.67°E vent field.
The MAGs represent 21 different bacterial genera.
They are linked to chemosynthetic pathways involving methane, metal, and sulfur metabolism.
Abstract
This paper presents high-quality metagenome-assembled genomes (MAGs) recovered from hydrothermal plume at the 67.67°E vent field along the eastern Southwest Indian Ridge. A total of 24 high-quality MAGs were obtained having 21 different genera. These MAGs, associated with chemosynthetic pathways including methane, metal, and sulfur metabolism, offer crucial insights into microbial transformation in deep-sea hydrothermal vents.
