16S rRNA Gene-Based Microbial Community Analysis of the Tapovan Hot Spring, India
This project investigates the microbial diversity of the Tapovan hot spring using 16S rRNA gene amplicon sequencing. Environmental samples were collected from the hot spring ecosystem to characterize the bacterial community composition and structure associated with high-temperature geothermal conditions. The generated sequence data provide insights into thermophilic and heat-tolerant microorganisms inhabiting the Tapovan hot spring and contribute to understanding microbial adaptation and ecological functions in extreme environments.
