Scientists find antimicrobial-resistant genes on deep-sea mountains in the Arabian Sea | Research Matters New DNA sequencing of deep-sea sediments reveals a surprisingly diverse world of microbes that hold clues to global nutrient cycles and natural antibiotic resistance.

Scientists are using forensic eDNA to solve the mysteries of the deep-sea floor. By testing a scoop of dirt from the ocean floor, they’ve mapped entire ecosystems of bacteria and fungi.
