Abstract
Genes for two enzymes of the tetrahydromethanopterin-linked C 1 transfer pathway ( fae and fhcD ) were detected in hypersaline, hyperalkaline Mono Lake (California), via PCR amplification and analysis. Low diversity for fae and fhcD was noted, in contrast to the diversity previously detected in a freshwater lake, Lake Washington (Washington).Keywords
