Preparation of long sediment cores retrieved from the bottom of the sea. Sediments are collected by a piston-coring device designed to collect 20 meter of sediment and brought up on the side of R/V G.O. Sars in the Norwegian Greenland sea during 2015 summer expedition with Centre for Geobiology. Photo credit: Steffen L Jørgensen In photo: crew members cleaning the outside piston core.

    ​Catching genes from chlamydiae allowed complex life to live without oxygen

    Researchers have discovered a new group of Chlamydiae, Anoxychlamydiales, living under the ocean floor without oxygen. These have genes that allow them to survive without oxygen while making hydrogen gas. The researchers found that our single-cell ancestors ‘caught’ these hydrogen-producing genes from ancient Chlamydiae up to two-billion years ago – The results are published in Science Advances.
