Metagenome Sequencing to Explore Phylogenomics of Terrestrial Cyanobacteria

Cyanobacteria are ubiquitous microorganisms with crucial ecosystem functions, yet most knowledge of their biology relates to aquatic taxa. We have constructed metagenomes for 50 taxonomically well-characterized terrestrial cyanobacterial cultures. These data will support phylogenomic studies of evol...

Description
Summary:Cyanobacteria are ubiquitous microorganisms with crucial ecosystem functions, yet most knowledge of their biology relates to aquatic taxa. We have constructed metagenomes for 50 taxonomically well-characterized terrestrial cyanobacterial cultures. These data will support phylogenomic studies of evolutionary relationships and gene content among these unique algae and their aquatic relatives.
