South Florida Surface Water Microbiomes

This study looks into shifts in the microbial communities that occur between agriculture, urban, and undisturbed sites due to anthropogenic influences such as runoff. High-throughput 16S rRNA sequencing was conducted on 112 water samples taken over a 14-month period from September 2016 to November 2017. Nineteen metadata factors were measured for 87 of the samples to investigate environmental effects

本研究旨在探究径流等人为活动影响下，农业、城市与未受干扰位点间微生物群落的组成变化。研究于2016年9月至2017年11月的14个月周期内，采集112份水样并开展高通量16S rRNA测序；其中87份水样测定了19项元数据(metadata)因子，以解析环境因素对微生物群落的影响。
