Lake Lanier (Georgia, USA) is home to more than 11,000 microbial Operational Taxonomic Units (OTUs), many of which exhibit clear annual abundance patterns. To assess the dynamics of this microbial community, we collected time series data of 16S and 18S rRNA gene sequences, recovered from 29 planktonic shotgun metagenomic datasets. Based on these data, we constructed a dynamic mathematical model of bacterial interactions in the lake and used it to analyze changes in the abundances of OTUs. The mo ...[more]
