Global Reanalysis Reveals Recurrent Cyanobacterial Enrichment in the Aquatic Plastisphere

Abstract The plastisphere is an emerging anthropogenic ecosystem hosting complex microbial assemblages. While heterotrophic colonizers are well studied, the role of primary producers such as cyanobacteria remains underexplored. Here, we reanalyzed 16S rRNA gene amplicon data from...
