Genomic and phylotypic properties of three novel marine Bacteroidota from bare tidal flats reveal insights into their potential of polysaccharide metabolism
Abstract:Special geographical location and abundant organic matter profiles in tidal flats have resulted in great microbial diversity, in which Bacteroidota strains are considered as one of the primary degraders of polysaccharides, playing a crucial role in the carbon cycle. In this study, we collected sediment or sand samples from 34 bare tidal flats in China and investigated the profile of culturable bacteria, selected three Bacteroidota for polyphasic taxonomic analysis and revealed their polysaccharide metabolic po… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
