title: 16S rRNA genes PF_Early_May_2010_St3
design: Samples were taken at 16 stations in the Baltic Sea during two years (15 time points). At each time point a subset of the stations were sampled. Total DNA was extracted from all samples and the 16S rRNA gene was amplified by PCR. Samples were labelled with barcodes and sequenced on one plate in the same run (454 GS FLX Titanium Platform).
