Prokaryotic Community Structures in a Thermophilic Anaerobic Digestion Reactor Converting Poly( l -Lactic Acid) for a Long Period Revealed by 16S rRNA Gene Amplicon Sequencing

Abstract

Little information on poly(l-lactic acid) (PLLA) treatment-associated microbiota in thermophilic anaerobic digestion reactors is available. Here, we provide 16S rRNA gene sequence data on microbiota in a thermophilic anaerobic digestion reactor converting PLLA to methane for 336 days. Data comprising 99,566 total high-quality reads were tabulated at the taxonomic class level.
