Expanded Genomic Sampling Refines Current Understanding of the Distribution and Evolution of Sulfur Metabolisms in the Desulfobulbales

The reconstruction of modern and paleo-sulfur cycling relies on understanding the long-term relative contribution of its main actors; these include microbial sulfate reduction (MSR) and microbial sulfur disproportionation (MSD). However, a unifying theory is lacking for how MSR and MSD, with the sam...
