Succession and persistence of microbial communities and antimicrobial resistance genes associated with International Space Station environmental surfaces
13 Nov 2018
Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: The International Space Station (ISS) is an ideal test bed for studying the effects of microbial persistence and succession on a closed system during long space flight. Culture-based analyses, targeted gene-based amplicon sequencing (bacteriome, mycobiome, and resistome), and shotgun metagenomics approaches have previously been performed on ISS environmental sample sets using whole genome...
