Bacterial Communities in Polluted Seabed Sediments: A Molecular Biology Assay in Leghorn Harbor
Seabed sediments of commercial ports are often characterized by high pollution levels. Differences in number and distribution of bacteria in such areas can be related to distribution of pollutants in the port and to sediment conditions. In this study, the bacterial communities of five sites from Leg...
