Shotgun Sequencing of Tara Oceans DNA samples corresponding to size fractions...

Seawater was filtered from different depths to retain small cell sizes (Bacteria Organisms). The DNA was extracted and submitted to high throughput sequencing.

从不同深度的海水中采集水样并进行过滤，以截留小型细胞尺寸的细菌类生物。随后提取样本中的脱氧核糖核酸(DNA)，并开展高通量测序(high throughput sequencing)。
