Molecular hydrogen is an overlooked energy source for marine bacteria

R. Lappan, G. Shelley, Z. F. Islam, P. M. Leung, S. Lockwood, P. A. Nauer, T. Jirapanjawat, Y.-J. Chen, A. J. Kessler, T. J. Williams, R. Cavicchioli, F. Baltar, P. L. M. Cook, S. E. Morales, C. Greening

This study shows marine bacteria consume molecular hydrogen as an energy source, with H2 oxidation more active in subantarctic waters and supported by genomic and experimental evidence.
