Freshwater microbial metagenomes sampled across different water body characteristics, space and time in Israel.

ABSTRACT: Freshwater bodies are critical components of terrestrial ecosystems. The microbial communities of freshwater ecosystems are intimately linked water quality. These microbes interact with, utilize and recycle inorganic elements and organic matter. Here, we present three metagenomic sequence datasets (total of 182.9 Gbp) from different freshwater environments in Israel. The first dataset is from diverse freshwater bodies intended for different usages - a nature reserve, irrigation and aquaculture facilities, a tertiary wastewater treatment plant and a desert rainfall reservoir. The second represents a two-year time-series, collected during 2013-2014 at roughly monthly intervals, from a water reservoir connected to an aquaculture facility. The third is from several time-points during the winte
