Composting bioreactor sample metagenome

DNA used for metagenome sequencing was extracted from a composting bioreactor sample. Green-waste compost was added to switchgrass (Panicum virgatum) and incubated under simulated composting conditions in a bioreactor to select for a switchgrass-adaped microbial community and to facilitate targeted discovery of glycoside hydrolases. The metagenome of this sample was sequenced using 454 titanium technology. Approximately 800 genes encoding for glycoside hydrolase domains were identified including several full-length genes. GU178033-GU178768 are ribosomal RNA sequences associated with this study. The WGS project and sequences deposited into the Sequence Read Archive can be found using the Project data link.
