Reduction of bacterial integrity associated with dam construction: A quantitative assessment using an index of biotic integrity improved by stability analysis.

Abstract Rivers are extensively regulated by damming, yet the effects of such interruption on bacterial communities have not been assessed quantitatively. To fill this gap, we proposed a bacteria-based index of biotic integrity (Ba-IBI) by using bacterial community dataset collected from the Three G...
