Extracellular DNA as a genetic recorder of microbial diversity in benthic deep-sea ecosystems

Extracellular DNA in deep-sea sediments represents a major repository of genes, which previously belonged to living organisms. However, the extent to which these extracellular genes influence current estimates of prokaryotic biodiversity is unknown. We investigated the abundance and diversity of 16S...
