Dissemination of TnMERI1-like mercury resistance transposons among Bacillus isolated from worldwide environmental samples.

abstract：:Glaciers accumulate airborne microorganisms year by year and thus are good archives of microbial communities and their relationship to climatic and environmental changes. Hypotheses have focused on two possible drivers of microbial community composition in glacier systems. One is aeolian deposition, in which the micro...
