    On June 15 , the international academic journal Environmental Microbiology reported on the research results of Sun Chaomin’s research group from the Key Laboratory of Experimental Marine Biology of the Chinese Academy of Sciences on the use of infrared light for energy synthesis by deep-sea hydrothermal microorganisms, in order to discover new light energy utilization mechanisms and evaluate geological heat sources The contribution of light to deep-sea hydrothermal ecosystems provides theoretical basis and research examples


     

    For a long time, researchers have generally believed that the deep sea is a dark ecosystem supported by chemical energy, but more and more evidence shows that deep-sea hydrothermal areas, especially near high-temperature chimney bodies, can emit geology dominated by infrared light.


     

    Focusing on the above scientific issues, Sun Chaomin's team obtained a strain of Croceicoccus marinus OT19 from the sediment samples based on the sediment collected by the "Science" in 2018 from the vicinity of the deep-sea hydrothermal vent, using infrared light enrichment culture technology .
