Ocean microbe census discovers diverse world of rare bacteria

he sea floor, and deep sea sediments. While 1,200 one-liter samples is a drop in the bucket considering the size of the oceans, it represents an important start."

"Peering through a laboratory microscope into a drop of seawater is like looking at the stars on a clear night", says marine microbiologist Victor Gallardo of Chile, Vice Chair of the Census of Marine Life. "The '454 tag sequencing' strategy increases resolution like the Hubble Telescope. We can see marine microbial diversity to which we were blind before. These rare, ancient organisms are likely to prove a key part of nature's history and strategy."
