Metagenomic Analysis of Cyanobacteria in an Oligotrophic Tropical Estuary, South Atlantic

Metagenomic Analysis of Cyanobacteria in an Oligotrophic Tropical Estuary, South Atlantic

This study assessed the species composition, distribution, and functional profiles of cyanobacteria in Camamu Bay, a tropical oligotrophic estuarine system on the northeast coast of Brazil, using shotgun metagenomic sequencing. Surface-water samples were evaluated in two different rainfall periods (...
