Taxonomic and Functional Differences between Microbial Communities in Qinghai Lake and Its Input Streams
Understanding microbial communities in terms of taxon and function is essential to decipher the biogeochemical cycling in aquatic ecosystems. Lakes and their input streams are highly linked. However, the differences between microbial assemblages in streams and lakes are still unclear. In this study,...
