Microbial Communities and Diversities in Mudflat Sediments Analyzed Using a Modified Metatranscriptomic Method

Intertidal mudflats are land–sea interaction areas and play important roles in global nutrient cycles. However, a comprehensive understanding of microbial communities in these mudflats remains elusive. In this study, mudflat sediment samples from the Dongtan wetland of Chongming Island, the largest...
