Picoplankton diversity in an oligotrophic and high salinity environment in the central Adriatic Sea

Abstract By combining qualitative 16S metabarcoding and quantitative CARD-FISH methods with neural gas analysis, different patterns of the picoplankton community were revealed at finer taxonomic levels in response to changing environmental conditions in the Adriatic Sea. We present the results of a...
