In this thesis, the effect of high pressure on the ability of bacteria to degrade crude oil components was investigated in high pressure reactors. Depending on the analysed model strain and crude oil component, bacterial growth and degradation ability were either enhanced, inhibited or not affected by high pressure. Moreover, high pressure changed the composition of crude oil-degrading bacterial communities living in deep-sea sediments. This thesis proved that pressure is a crucial factor that cannot be neglected if we want to understand biodegradation of crude oil in deep-sea environments.
