16S rRNA amplicon sequencing of a phycocyanin-producing Nostoc sp. co-culture
This project contains 16S rRNA amplicon sequencing data (V4 region) from a phycocyanin-producing Nostoc sp. co-culture. The objective of this sequencing was to identify the co-occurring heterotrophic bacteria (including Allorhizobium and Erythrobacter species). This analysis is part of a broader study focusing on the step-wise medium optimization and scalable production of phycocyanin using a definitive screening design, from high-throughput microplates to a 20-L photobioreactor.
