Abstract: Phototrophic biofilms and microbial mats colonise coastal rocky shores around the Maltese islands. Such communities are underinvestigated, both locally in Malta and regionally in the Mediterranean area. This study aims to increase the knowledge of the genetic diversity of phototrophic communities forming biofilms and microbial mats along a central Mediterranean shoreline, that are adapted to survive stressors of temperature, salinity and UV radiation.
