Millimeter‐scale genetic gradients and community‐level molecular convergence in a hypersaline microbial mat

Abstract To investigate the extent of genetic stratification in structured microbial communities, we compared the metagenomes of 10 successive layers of a phylogenetically complex hypersaline mat from Guerrero Negro, Mexico. We found pronounced millimeter‐scale genetic gradients that were consistent...
