Moss microbial communities from three moss species from boreal forest in Fairbanks, AK, USA. moss metagenome

DNA from three moss species was extracted to assemble metagenomes-assembled-genomes from the bacterial communities living in and on the moss. Microbes associated with boreal mosses are important sources of biologically fixed nitrogen in the boreal forest. In addition, the mosses sequenced in this study harbor high concentrations of bacteria from the phylum WPS-2 (sometimes referred to as Candidatus Eremiobacterota)
