Abstract
strains sampled from different habitats revealed that subseafloor strains have much lower nucleotide diversity, substitution rate, and homologous recombination rate than other strains, reflecting that the growth and/or reproduction of subseafloor strains are extremely slow. Our data provide new insights into the adaptation and long-term survival of the fungi in the subseafloor sedimentary biosphere.
