Abstract
Ten soil cores were collected from the long-term heavy metal-contaminated Savannah River Site (SRS) and studied using shotgun metagenomics. In-line with our previous reports, Bradyrhizobium spp. dominated the SRS soils, and thus we recommend that SRS bioremediation studies target the Bradyrhizobium genus.
