Nutrient content and enterococci numbers were monitored, and used to correlate with the abundance of microbial markers. Microbial source tracking revealed the presence of >1 human-associated <i>Bacteroides</i> spp. at some of the near-shore sampling sites and at a heavily frequented beach. Water samples collected from the beaches had occasional exceedances in enterococci numbers, higher total organic carbon (TOC, 1.48–2.18 mg/L) and nitrogen (TN, 0.15–0.27 mg/L) than that detected in the near-shore waters. Enterococci abundances obtained from next-generation sequencing did not correlate well with the cultured enterococci numbers. The abundance of certain genera, for example <i>Arcobacter</i>, <i>Pseudomonas</i> and unclassified <i>Campylobacterales</i>, was observed to exhibit slight correlation with TOC and TN. Low abundance of functional genes accounting for up to 41 copies/L of each <i>Pseudomonas aeruginosa</i> and <i>Campylobacter coli</i> were detected. <i>Arcobacter butzleri</i> was also detected in abundance ranging from 111 to 238 copies/L. Operational taxonomic units (OTUs) associated with cyanobacteria, <i>Prochlorococcus,</i> <i>Ostreococcus</i> spp. and <i>Gramella</i> were more prevalent in waters that were likely impacted by urban runoffs and recreational activities. These OTUs could potentially serve as quantifiable markers indicative of the water quality.","AbstractOtherLang":null,"BibLvlCode":"AS","StandardTitle":"Molecular-based approaches to characterize coastal microbial community and their potential relation to the trophic state of Red Sea","OrigTitleLangCode":"en","OrigTitleLangCodeExtended":"eng","OrigTitleLangID":15,"DateLastModified":{"date":"2026-06-19 01:31:29.660965","timezone_type":1,"timezone":"+02:00"},"UserAccessRight":null,"UserAccID":null,"AuthorKeywords":null,"OtherDescriptors":null,"Notes":null,"AnaPub":2015,"MonPub":null,"DateUpdate":"2018-02-13","DateCreate":"2015-03-20","SecASFANote":null,"ConfID":null,"PeerRev":1,"VlizCoreFlag":1,"WoScode":"WOS:000351138300016","VABBcode":null,"OpenAcc":1,"DOI":"10.1038/srep09001"},"refs":null,"anarec":{"AnaID":245594,"PubliDate":2015,"Pagination":"10 pp","XtraPublOfAnaID":null,"ISBN":null,"Volume":"5","Issue":"9001","BRefMon":null,"BRefMonRR":null,"BRefXtra":null,"BRefXtraRR":null,"SerBRefID":208093,"SerRR":"Scientific Reports (Nature Publishing Group).
