[Diversity of bacteria at various depths in the southern part of lake Baikal as detected by 16S rRNA sequencing].

Abstract excerpt

Phylogenetic analysis of the bacterial community inhabiting the water of Lake Baikal was performed on the basis of 16S rRNA sequencing. The composition of the bacterial community was shown to vary significantly with depth. Cyanobacteria were dominant species at the surface of the lake. At a moderate depth (400 m), actinomycete relatives were most abundant. At a great depth and near the bottom, the community was...
