Bacterial Diversity in Fluoride - Contaminated Soils Using 16S rDNA Sequencing
V. Roshni
Abstract: In the unique Kuttanad region of Kerala, India, renowned for its low - lying paddy fields and intricate waterways, this study investigates molecular microbial diversity in fluoride - contaminated soils. Key to this exploration is the molecular technique 16S rDNA sequencing. Using these molecular techniques, specific bacterial species such as Pseudomonas plecoglossicida (KTB1), Bacillus subtilis (KMB2), and Pseudomonas putida (KMNB3) were revealed within these soils. The application of molecular techniques emerges as a powerful tool for understanding specific microbial diversity in challenging environmental conditions.
