Comparative genomics in acid mine drainage biofilm communities reveals metabolic and structural differentiation of co-occurring archaea
Background Metal sulfide mineral dissolution during bioleaching and acid mine drainage (AMD) formation creates an environment that is inhospitable to most life. Despite dominance by a small number of bacteria, AMD microbial biofilm communities contain a notable variety of coexisting and closely rela...
