A characterization of microbes at the San Pedro Ocean Time-series (SPOT) from 2005 to 2018, using SSU rRNA gene sequencing from two size fractions, with a universal primer set that amplifies from prokaryotes and eukaryotes

This study aims to characterize microbes at the San Pedro Ocean Time-series (SPOT) from 2005 to 2018, using small subunit (SSU) rRNA gene sequencing from two size fractions (0.2-1 and 1-80 μm), with a universal primer set that amplifies both prokaryotic 16S and eukaryotic 18S rRNA genes. This allows for direct comparisons of diversity patterns in a single set of analyses. This dataset includes National Center for Biotechnology Information (NCBI) accession numbers and related sample information.
