Genomic sequences reveal ecological roles of bacterial isolates from the Greenland Ice Sheet, suggesting their biotechnological potential.
We report the genomic sequences of seven bacterial isolates from the western coast of the Greenland Ice Sheet. The surface ice along the margins of the ice sheet is dominated by microbes. As the ice sheet melts, it is important to understand the ecological role and biotechnological potential of this novel extremophile microbiome.
