New Water Science and Technology Findings Reported from Civil and Environment Engineering School (Spatiotemporal Variation of Bacterial Communities In Three Cascade Reservoirs In a Southern City of China)

摘要

2021 SEP 21 (NewsRx) - By a News Reporter-Staff News Editor at Disease Prevention Daily - Current study results on Science - Water Science and Technology have been published. According to news reporting originating in Shenzhen, People's Republic of China, by NewsRx journalists, research stated, "Reservoirs are important water sources of urban drinking water supply. Bacteria play an important role in the removal of organics in reservoirs, but some of them can pose a health risk to consumers." Financial support for this research came from National Science and Technology Project of China. The news reporters obtained a quote from the research from Civil and Environment Engineering School, "Knowledge of bacterial community composition in drinking water sources can favour the drinking water security safeguards. This study investigated the monthly composition and diversity of bacterial communities in three cascade reservoirs using high-throughput Illumina HiSeq sequencing over one hydrological year. The diversity and structure of the bacterial community showed distinct spatiotemporal variation.
