xenic diatom monocultures 16S rRNA gene sequencing (V4 region)

In this study we investigated the microbial communities within the xenic diatom monocultures. Diatoms were isolated from four loggerhead sea turtles (from their carapace and skin) and grown in monocultures for several months prior to collecting biomass for amplicon sequencing of the V4 region of the 16S rRNA gene. The data relates to the study Filek et al. 2022 "More than just hitchhikers: a survey of bacterial communities associated with diatoms originating from marine reptiles" bioRxiv 2022.04.19.488760; doi: https://doi.org/10.1101/2022.04.19.488760

本研究针对非无菌硅藻单培养物内的微生物群落展开了调查。研究人员从4只红海龟的背甲与皮肤处分离得到硅藻，并在收集菌体用于16S核糖体RNA（16S rRNA）基因V4区扩增子测序前，将其单培养数月。本数据集关联的研究为Filek等人2022年发表于预印本平台bioRxiv的《不只是搭便车者：海洋爬行动物来源硅藻相关细菌群落调查》，预印本编号：bioRxiv 2022.04.19.488760；DOI：https://doi.org/10.1101/2022.04.19.488760。
