Metagenomics of oil contaminated soil samples planted with Alfalfa and Barley
The role of rhizosphere microbial communities in the degradation of hydrocarbons remains poorly understood and is a field of active study. We used next generation sequencing to explore the rhizosphere microbial diversity in the alfalfa and barley planted oil contaminated soil samples. The findings of the current study will be useful in understanding the micro-flora responsible for oil degradation, and thus can help in designing appropriate phytoremediation strategies for oil contaminated lands.
The accession and its GCC connection are verified. Registration alone does not establish that the broader research programme remains active.
