Rare biosphere archaea assimilate acetate in Precambrian terrestrial subsurface at 2.2 km depth
Acetate utilizing communities were identified and characterized in Outokumpu deep subsurface fracture fluids by SIP and cell activation and compared to the original groundwater communities. Response to acetate was evaluated through DNA SIP and RNA targeted cell activation. Study was performed on filter concentrated samples.  Archaeal and bacterial 16S rRNA gene barcoded amplicons were sequenced using the 454 Roche FLX Titanium pyrosequencing platform.
