Article Abstract
The cave ecosystems host microbial communities adapted to extreme environments. This study utilized 16S rDNA to investigate the prokaryotic diversity across seven caves in Puerto Rico's northern limestone karst belt. Microbial profiling revealed distinct subterranean communities, enhancing our understanding of cave microbiology and potential applications in environmental conservation and microbial research.
