Metagenomic 16S rRNA Sequencing Analysis of Pacific Oyster (Crassostrea gigas) Microbiota from the Puget Sound Region in the United States
This is the first study analyzing Pacific oyster microbiota in the Puget Sound estuarine system using a next-generation sequencing method. Taxonomic analysis indicated that Tenericutes, Chlamydiae , Proteobacteria , and Firmicutes were the most abundant phyla. Small numbers of operational taxonomic...

Summary: | This is the first study analyzing Pacific oyster microbiota in the Puget Sound estuarine system using a next-generation sequencing method. Taxonomic analysis indicated that Tenericutes, Chlamydiae , Proteobacteria , and Firmicutes were the most abundant phyla. Small numbers of operational taxonomic units (OTUs) belonging to the Vibrio genus were detected in all the oyster microbiome samples. |
