Prokaryotic diversity and composition within equatorial lakes Olbolosat and Oloiden in Kenya (Africa)

Prokaryotic diversity and composition within equatorial lakes Olbolosat and Oloiden in Kenya (Africa)

Total community 16S rDNA was used to determine the diversity and composition of bacteria and archaea within lakes Olbolosat and Oloiden in Kenya. The V3-V4 hypervariable region of the 16S rRNA gene was targeted since it's highly conserved and has a higher resolution for lower rank taxa. High th...
