The genetic potential for carbon, nitrogen, and sulfur cycling at 8 m and in the sediments of Mahoney Lake. The genetic potential for each step was estimated using a combination of normalized marker gene ratios as previously described (Lauro et al., 2011). The marker genes for dissimilatory sulfate reduction and sulfide oxidation (K00394, K00395, K00396) can operate in both sulfide oxidation and sulfate reduction. Therefore, they were assigned to sulfate reduction or sulfur oxidation based on the best match within KEGG. Sed, sediments. Marker genes are provided in Table S4.
