Sequence data from faecal samples form Civettictis civetta and Gentta spp.

Sequence data from manuscript: 'Illuminating the links between gut microbiome composition and diet in two omnivorous African viverrids' - Storm & Langkjær et al. The data contains sequence data from Metabarcoding data of faecal samples from Civettictis civetta and Genetta spp. The folder contains a subfolder '16SrRNA' that contains demultiplexed raw reads of barcodes from the bacterial V4 region of the 16S rRNA gene. Each file contains forward or reverse reads from one samples. The following files contain non-demultiplexed reads from animal and plant barcode: Vert01_1_R1.fastq.gz, Vert01_1_R2.fastq.gz, Vert01_2_R1.fastq.gz, Vert01_2_R2.fastq.gz - Raw reads for marker targeting 12S for vertebrate DNA (Riaz et al., 2011). Coleop_1_R1.fastq.gz, Coleop_1_R2.fastq.gz, Coleop_2_R1.fastq.gz, Coleop_2_R2.fastq.gz - Raw reads for marker targeting 16S for coleoptera DNA (Epp et al., 2012). Zeale_1_R1.fastq.gz, Zeale_1_R2.fastq.gz, Zeale_2_R1.fastq.gz, Zeale_2_R2.fastq.gz - Raw reads for marker targeting COI for Arthropod DNA (Zeale, 2011). Trac01_1_R1.fastq.gz, Trac01_1_R2.fastq.gz, Trac01_2_R1.fastq.gz, Trac01_2_R2.fastq.gz - Raw reads for marker targeting ITS1 for vascular plant DNA (Taberlet et al., 2018). Mam16S_1_R1.fastq.gz, Mam16S_1_R2.fastq.gz, Mam16S_2_R1.fastq.gz, Mam16S_2_R2.fastq.gz - Raw reads for marker targeting 16S for mammal DNA (Taberlet et al., 2018). The files *_PSinfo.txt contains information on pool1 no., tag combination and sample ID. The files *_primers.txt contain the forward and reverse primer sequence. The files *_tags.txt contains the tag sequences for demultiplexing. The above files are design to be used for demultiplexing using a modified DAMe pipeline (https://github.com/shyamsg/DAMe).
