In situ evidence of tiered adaptations buffering a chemosynthetic clam holobiont against environmental sulfide fluctuations

Deep-sea holobionts adapt to extreme environmental fluctuations, but the molecular mechanisms underlying resilience remain poorly understood. We investigated the vesicomyid clam Archivesica marissinica and its sulfur-oxidizing symbionts during sulfide shortage via in situ transpl...
