title: rDNA amplicon seq: Western N. Atl. marine microbial comm.
design: Extraction and PCR amplification of microplankton biomass collected via filtration of seawater samples, using custom 16S V4 and 18S V4 rRNA primers with attached adapters and barcodes. Products checked on gel, purified, quantitated using a Qubit 3.0, and pooled at equimolar concentrations for submission.
