Assessing microphytobenthos responses to land use: insights from photosynthesis-related traits, digital light microscopy, and 18S-V9 amplicon sequencing
收藏资源简介：
This folder contains the datasets used in the article submitted to Hydrobiologia in which we investigated the functional and compositional responses of microphytobenthos communities to surrounding land uses in the Kinzig River catchment, central Germany. We measured photosynthetic biomass using a Benthotorch, and analysed the diatom community using a newly developed digital light microscopy approach and 18S-V9 amplicon sequencing to characterise the whole protistan assemblages at sampling sites located in rural vs. urban areas. The folder contain the following datasets: kinzig2021_18SV9_filtered.csv # microphytobenthos 18SV9 amplicon sequencing data kinzig_paper.csv # OMNIDIA output of diatom data from microscopy and diatom subset from 18SV9 amplicon sequencing kinzig2021_benthotorch.csv # Photosynthetic biomass (BenthoTorch data) Kinzig2021_fieldData.csv # environmental data
