Uncovering novel functions of the enigmatic, abundant, and active Anaerolineae in a salt marsh ecosystem by Paige E. Payne, Loren N. Knobbe, Patricia Chanton, Julian Zaugg, Behzad Mortazavi, Olivia U. Mason

“…Using an ‘omics-based approach, we determined that Anaerolineae are capable of oxidizing a range of carbon compounds, including simple sugars to complex carbon compounds, while also encoding fermentation and carbon fixation. Surprisingly, Anaerolineae encoded and transcribed genes involved in aerobic respiration, which was unexpected given the reduced nature of the salt marsh rhizosphere. …”
