Abstract
). Further metagenomic analyses provided insights on the metabolism and ecological functions of DPANN archaea to adapt to deep-sea hydrothermal environments. Our study contributes to a deeper understanding of their special lifestyles and should provide clues to cultivate this important archaeal group in the future.
