Summary

Researchers sequenced the complete genomes of nine bacterial strains isolated from microplastics collected in water and sediments of the Bow River in Calgary, Alberta, Canada. The genome sequences provide insight into the freshwater plastisphere microbiome and the plastic biodegradation potential of microplastic-associated bacterial communities in urban river environments.

Study Type Environmental

We present the complete genome sequences of nine bacterial strains isolated from microplastics from water or sediments of the Bow River in Calgary, Alberta. These isolates provide insight into the freshwater microplastic microbiome and their plastic biodegradation potential.
