Organismal and spatial partitioning of energy and macronutrient transformations within a hypersaline mat.
Paper summary
Combines species-resolved metagenomics with chemical and spatial measurements in a hypersaline microbial mat. The study maps distributed resource capture and transformations across a compact structured community.
Relevance to the project
A reference for distributed causal machinery, spatial niches, and community-level energy flow. Useful when choosing entity versus association boundaries.
Genomic potential and measured gradients do not prove every inferred metabolic exchange.
