16S rRNA-based profiling of bacterial and cyanobacterial communities in kelowna stormwater ponds : influence of environmental factors on bacterial diversity and cyanobacterial community
This research aims to analyze the bacterial and cyanobacterial communities in stormwater ponds and determine the impact of environmental factors on their diversity.
Used 16S rRNA-based profiling to identify bacterial and cyanobacterial communities.
Collected water samples from Kelowna stormwater ponds.
Analyzed the influence of various environmental factors on community diversity.
Identified distinct bacterial and cyanobacterial communities present in the stormwater ponds.
Showed significant correlations between environmental factors and community diversity.
