Community composition and toxigenicity analysis of a major riverine cyanobacterial bloom using multiplex-tandem PCR and metagenomics.
Cyanobacterial blooms are a major water quality issue and present a potential health risk to humans and animals by producing an array of toxic compounds. Here we have spiked a subset of cyanobacterial bloom samples spiked with Chrysosporum ovalisporum FSS-103 strain and sequenced phycocyanin-intergenic spacer (cpcBA-IGS) sequence by PacBio SMRT CCS sequence on a PacBio sequel II machine.
