Corbicula fluminea associated microbiota Raw sequence reads
The Asian clam Corbicula fluminea is one of the most invasive freshwater species and dominates benthic biomass in many freshwater ecosystems. Here, we collected 64 C. fluminea tissue samples and 62 environmental samples from 7 sampling sites across a large and shallow lake in China. Using 16S rRNA gene sequencing approach, we first characterized the microbiota associated with C. fluminea.
