Metagenomic Resolution of Functional Diversity in Copper Surface-Associated Marine Biofilms

Metagenomic Resolution of Functional Diversity in Copper Surface-Associated Marine Biofilms

We used metagenomic sequencing combined with morphological and chemical analyses to investigate microbial taxa and functions related to copper-resistance and microbiologically influenced corrosion in mature copper-associated biofilms in coastal seawater for 44 months. Facultative anaerobic microbes...
