Carbon-13 depletion in a hydrothermal vent mussel: suggestion of a chemosynthetic food source.

G H Rau, J I Hedges.   

Abstract

Tissues of a mytilid mussel from the Clambake I hydrothermal vent in the Galápagos Rift zone are strikingly depleted in carbon-13 relative to the tissues of other marine organisms. The stable carbon isotope composition of this mussel suggests that chemoautotrophic bacteria present in the hydrothermal waters are a major food source for filter-feeding organisms in this abyssal environment.
