Bacterial 16s Amplicon Sequencing of the Atlantic Ocean

Citation

MGnify (2016). Bacterial 16s Amplicon Sequencing of the Atlantic Ocean. Sampling event dataset https://doi.org/10.15468/oqc3n8 accessed via GBIF.org on 2026-06-04.

Description

Latitudinal transect of the Atlantic Ocean, depth range from 20-200m, size fractioned by filtering (0.22, 3, 8 µm). Amplicon Sequencing of the V5-V6 region of the bacterial 16s rRNA Gene.
