SHOTGUN METAGENOMIC SEQUENCING FOR THE CHARACTERIZATION OF BACTERIAL COMMUNITIES ASSOCIATED WITH GAMMARUS LACUSTRIS FROM FRESHWATER ECOSYSTEMS IN KAZAKHSTAN
Bacterial communities associated with the freshwater amphipod Gammarus lacustris collected from six inland lakes and a reservoir in Kazakhstan were characterized by shotgun metagenomic sequencing. Gammarus were obtained from lakes and reservoirs representing a range of salinity conditions, and bacterial community compo...
