Anaerobic oxidation of short-chain alkanes in hydrothermal sediments: potential influences on sulfur cycling and microbial diversity

Short-chain alkanes play a substantial role in carbon and sulfur cycling at hydrocarbon-rich environments globally, yet few studies have examined the metabolism of ethane (C(2)), propane (C(3)), and butane (C(4)) in anoxic sediments in contrast to methane (C(1)). In hydrothermal vent systems, short-...
