Bacterial Communities and Culturable Petroleum Hydrocarbon Degrading Bacteria in Marine Sediments in the Northeastern South China Sea

Marine oil spill pollution was one of the factors affecting the marine ecology of the northeastern South China Sea (nSCS). The submarine oil produced after the oil spill had a long-term impact on the microbial community in the sediment. In this study, 16S rRNA genes high-throughput sequencing and qu...
