Coastal marsh sediment alkB, pmoA, and P450 gene survey

Dataset homepage

Citation

MGnify (2019). Coastal marsh sediment alkB, pmoA, and P450 gene survey. Sampling event dataset https://doi.org/10.15468/jvmo2q accessed via GBIF.org on 2023-02-04.

Description

This dataset includes high-throughput amplicons for alkane dehydrogenase (alkB) genes, particulate monooxygenase (pmoA) genes, and cytochrome P450, encoded by CYP153, genes amplified and sequenced from subtidal sediment and inland soil samples collected biannually (September 2011 to October 2014) from a marsh near Grand Isle, Louisiana. This marsh was affected by oil deposition following the Deepwater Horizon oil spill in 2010. The goals of this dataset are to 1) track changes in the phylogenetic diversity of genes that code for a key enzymes used for bacterial alkane oxidation, short and long chain, from the oil impacted sediments and soil, and 2) to contribute to an understanding of bacterial functional role in the degradation of weathered oil residues in a natural marsh system.
