Unveiling organohalide respiration potential in River Nile sediments via 16S rRNA gene amplicon sequencing of endogenous bacterial communities
This study demonstrates that River Nile sediment in industrialized area harbors distinct microbiomes enclosing various OHRB genera, providing substantial evidence for potential reductive dechlorination activity. It also provides potential functional biomarkers for OHR activity.
