compost metagenome
This BioSample represents a metagenomic sample collected from a laboratory scale thermophilic aerobic composting system amended with microalgae derived bioplastic. Compost microcosms were operated under controlled conditions following ASTM D5338 guidelines and sampled to characterize microbial community composition and functional potential during bioplastic biodegradation. The sample was collected to support genome resolved and read level analyses linking polymer composition to microbial metabolic strategies, including shifts from sugar based glycolysis to amino acid and organic acid centered carbon metabolism. These data contribute to understanding the compostability and environmental fate of emerging bio based plastics in engineered waste treatment systems. This is the sample with polyethene collected at day 45.
