Araguaia River - 16S and 18S rDNA samples (project - 8 lakes) Metagenome. Araguaia River - 16S and 18S rDNA samples (project - 8 lakes)

In this project, the diversity of eukaryotic and prokaryotic microbiota of important floodplains lakes in Central Brazil was described based on metabarcoding analysis of rDNA genes. Also, the spatial concordance of the lakes using two metabarcoding analysis (16S and 18S rDNA) were analyzed. New information was generated to characterize the diversity of organisms of this important Brazilian freshwater system and complemented the information produced by traditional taxonomic studies in this region.
