Sponge 16S microbial sequence data generated using MiSeq Illumina. Three samples of the sponge species Leucetta prolifera from Western Australia were sequenced to investigate the diversity of the micr
Microbial communities have a key role in the physiology of the sponge host, and it is therefore essential to understand the stability and specificity of sponge–symbiont associations. Host-specific bac
This study aimed to describe the microbial community associated with the marine sponge Cymbastela stipitata and to determine how anthropogenic inputs of nitrogen affect the sponge microbe symbiosis.
