Magnetotactic bacteria (MTB) combine passive alignment with the Earth magnetic field with
a chemotactic response (magneto-chemotaxis) to reach their optimal living depth in …

Benthic environments harbor highly diverse and complex microbial communities that control
carbon fluxes, but the role of specific uncultivated microbial groups in organic matter …

It is still contentious how the abundance and diversity of magnetofossils reflect varying
paleoenvironmental conditions. Here, we apply rock magnetic methods and transmission …

Magnetic signals in deep‐sea sediments have the potential to unravel past continental
environmental changes, via changes in primary terrigenous magnetic supply, but also …

Magnetotactic bacteria (MTB) rely on magnetotaxis to effectively reach their preferred living
habitats, whereas experimental investigation of magnetotactic advantage in stable sediment …

Magnetotactic bacteria (MTB), the members of sediment microorganisms, play an important
role in geochemical iron-cycling and sediment magnetism. This study aimed to investigate …

Magnetofossils in the continental shelf sediments of the Yellow and Bohai Seas have long
been overlooked. Based on the magnetic results of 88 surface sediments (0–10 cm depth) …

Biominerals are the product of organism activity leading to mineral formation within the
cellular space or in the neighbouring environment. This chapter presents the pivotal role …

Bacterial species referred to as magnetotactic bacteria (MTB) biomineralize iron oxides and
iron sulphides inside the cell. Bacteria can arrange themselves passively along …

Magnetotactic bacteria (MTB) are microorganisms capable of directed migration along
geomagnetic field lines due to the presence of magnetosomes (MS) in the cells. Because of …
