Bacterial diversity of soil in the vicinity of Pindari glacier, Himalayan mountain ranges, India, using culturable bacteria and soil 16S rRNA gene clones
ABSTRACT
Here, we present a 16S rRNA gene amplicon sequence data set and profiles demonstrating the bacterial diversity of baby and adult elephants from four different geographical locations in Thailand. The dominant phyla among baby and adult elephants were Bacteroidetes, Firmicutes, Proteobacteria, Kiritimatiellaeota, Euryarchaeota, and Tenericutes.
ABSTRACT
Comparative analysis of bacterial diversity in freshwater sediment collected from a shallow eutrophic lake was performed by using 16S rRNA gene clone library and improved cultivation-based techniques. Our study demonstrated that the use of gellan gum as a gelling reagent instead of agar was more effective at increasing culturability, cultivating a diverse array of novel microbes, and reducing the gaps of the results between molecular and cultivation-based analyses.
