Abstract

This paper presents high-quality metagenome-assembled genomes (MAGs) recovered from hydrothermal plume at the 67.67°E vent field along the eastern Southwest Indian Ridge. A total of 24 high-quality MAGs were obtained having 21 different genera. These MAGs, associated with chemosynthetic pathways including methane, metal, and sulfur metabolism, offer crucial insights into microbial transformation in deep-sea hydrothermal vents.
