Microbiome of phycosphere, epiphytic and surrounding environment during the Ulva prolifera green tide.
In this study, we collected phycosphere and epiphytic microbial communities samples, as well as from the surrounding environment during the Ulva prolifera green tide in the Yellow Sea from late May to early June 2024. Metagenomic detection technique was employed to identify the functional changes of the microbial communities, while 16S rRNA and ITS sequencing was used to assess bacterial and fungal community diversity and composition changes.
