Genomic Approach to Study the Role of Bacterioplankton in the Sulfur Cycle


Category

FP7 Project with U.S. partner

Short name and number

GenS (219811)

Area

Environment including Climate change

Description

This proposal aims at using environmental functional genomic tools to expand knowledge of bacterial roles in organic sulfur cycling in ocean surface waters, focusing particularly on biological controls of volatile sulfur exchange across the ocean/atmosphere boundary and links between microbial community structure and cycling of relevant organic sulfur compounds.

Participating Countries

Spain and United States.

Name of US Partner

Georgia State University Research Foundation, Inc.
