Temporal factors and habitats drive the variation of microbial distributions and co-occurrence patterns in the Pearl River Estuary
Our study sheds light on the importance of sampling time and habitat types in maintaining microbial diversities, and showed that prokaryotes and microeukaryotes may have different strategies when responding to the environmental changes in estuarine ecosystems.
