Metagenome sequencing and 103 microbial genomes from ballast water and sediments [PDF]
The great threat of microbes carried by ballast water calls for figuring out the species composition of the ballast-tank microbial community, where the dark, cold, and anoxic tank environment might select special taxa. In this study, we reconstructed 103

Review of Ballast Water Management
Ballast water provides to ship appropriate maneuverability, seaworthiness, cargo worthiness and it is essential to the safe and efficient operation of ship. The limits of organism concentration in ballast water allowed to be discharged into portʼs aquatorium were set by the International Maritime Organization (IMO).
