In this study, we implemented a modified metabarcoding approach to characterize the biome attached to polyethylene food bags after one month at sea in comparison to the...

Raw sequences from the high-throughput of bacterial 16S rRNA gene of plastisphere in lake waters

In our experimental study, we evaluated the microbial colonization on polypropylene pellets and two types of plastic bags: regular high density polyethylene (HDPE) and HDPE with...

In this work, we have characterized the plastisphere (bacteria and eukaryotes) on three types of MPs: poly-3-hydroxybutyrate (PHB), a biodegradable plastic, and two...

Eukaryotic microbial organisms of plastic and seawater. Marine micro/macro plastics drifting at multiple locations in the Jeju Strait and around Jeju Island, Korea, were...

This study investigates the prokaryotic biosphere's specificity on different plastic types and its potential role in plastic degradation. Through 16S rRNA sequencing analysis,...

We collected and analysed 136 plastic, 61 seawater, and 54 sediment samples from Singapore's coral reefs, seagrass meadows, and mangrove forests in 2021. To gain insights into...

Zostera marina (seagrass) is a coastal marine angiosperm that sustains a diverse and productive ecosystem. Seagrass-associated microbiota support host health, yet the ecological...

We collected and analysed 136 plastic, 61 seawater, and 54 sediment samples from Singapore's coral reefs, seagrass meadows, and mangrove forests in 2021. To gain insights into...

16S and ITS Raw sequence reads from plastisphere and sand from Kung Wiman beach

This study aimed to evaluate the impact of incrementally increasing plastic concentrations on the bacterial compartment in marine environments. We reproduced simplified tropical...

A 16S rRNA gene survey of the bacterial communities on plastic pollution, organic particles and surrounding water collected from the Baltic, Sargasso and Mediterranean Seas.

Seawater and Freshwater microbiome

This study investigates microbial communities from 39 water 110 zostera, and 9 artificial seagrass unit samples.

Aims of study were to analyse the plastic associated community across redox zones and temporal scales from a commercial marina in Denmark, samples were placed within the water...

Bacterial colonization kinetic on plastic

(1) Are there differences between sediment and water environmental DNA (eDNA) samples in terms of (a) number of reads assigned to metazoans, non-metazoans, and unclassified, (b)...

Plastic pollution is now an area of intense focus for direct chemical and physical toxicity effects in organisms and environmental systems. However, the effects from plastics...

Our study explores how the bacterial microbiome of Northwestern pacific coralline algae surface (British Columbia, Canada) varies across host coralline species.

This project looks at the effects of plastic to the microbial biodiversity and abundance, and how this could affect the microbial food webs and potentially the trophic systems.
