KeywordsSubseafloor biosphere / Gene function
Outline of Final Research Achievements

In this study, we aimed to explore genetic function of microbial life inhabited in subseafloor biosphere. For searching unknown microbial genetic function, we employed substrate-induced gene expression (SIGEX) approach that relies gene expression induced by exposure of substrate.
