Metagenomic Analysis of Microbial Communities in Jordanian Geothermal Hot Springs
This project aims to investigate the microbial diversity and functional potential of various geothermal hot springs in Jordan, including Ma'in, Zara, North Shounah, and Mekhebeh. Using shotgun metagenomic sequencing, we explore the taxonomic composition and the presence of thermophilic enzymes, specifically DNA Polymerase I, across different geochemical gradients.
