Depth heterogeneity of lignin-degrading microbiome and organic carbon processing in mangrove sediments by Jijuan Ding, Fei Liu, Jiaxiong Zeng, Hang Gu, Jing Huang, Bo Wu, Longfei Shu, Qingyun Yan, Zhili He, Cheng Wang

“…Using lignocellulosic analysis and metagenomic sequencing across five 100-cm sediment cores, we found a high proportion of lignin (95.0–97.7%) within sediments’ lignocellulosic detritus, with a small fraction of lignin-degrading genes (1.24–1.98%) of lignin-degrading genes within the carbohydrate-active enzyme coding genes. Depth stratification was observed in genes and microbial communities involved in lignin depolymerization and mineralization of lignin monomer derivatives. …”
