Abstract

We report 40 metagenomic libraries collected from the Winam Gulf of Lake Victoria during May–July of 2022–2023 and an additional eight opportunistic libraries from adjacent Lakes Simbi, Naivasha, and regional river systems. The sampling period captured cyanobacterial bloom events – shedding insight onto community composition and genomic potential.
