Atribacteria play an important role in global carbon cycling. Little is known, however, about the Atribacteria communities found in
alpine lakes. The presence and diversity of Atribacteria in the sediment core of alpine Sayram lake in China were investigated using
Illumina MiSeq sequencing in this study. According to the findings, Atribacteria affiliated with JS1 were dominant in the sediment core
of Sayram Lake, with a relative abundance of 0.19 to 10% (average 3.75%) of all bacterial sequences. Furthermore, the relative
abundance of Atribacteria associated with JS1 increased with sediment depth. As a result, this study significantly contributes to our
understanding of Atribacteria community habitat.
