TL;DR
This study maps the soil microbiomes of urban gardens in Bangladesh, finding that Bacillus species dominate and vary by location.
Contribution
The study identifies location-specific distribution patterns of Bacillus spp. in urban garden soils using shotgun metagenomics.
Findings
Bacillus spp. showed ecological dominance with over 53% relative abundance in garden soils.
Microbiome profiles differed between Dhaka and Gazipur district soils.
Location-specific distribution patterns of microbes were observed.
Abstract
Shotgun metagenomics revealed distinct microbiome profiles in the garden soils of Dhaka and Gazipur district, Bangladesh, with Bacillus spp. demonstrating ecological dominance (>53% relative abundance) and location-specific distribution patterns. These findings highlight Bacillus species as prevalent microbes in urban garden soils.
