title: Illumina HiSeq 2500 sequencing: age dependent changes in Caenorhabditis elegans gut microbiome
design: Soil used for fixed colonization time experiment. Compost microcosms harboring diverse microbial communities were prepared from local soil composted with produce for up to two weeks. DNA was extracted using QIAGEN PowerSoil DNA isolation kit and 16S V4 region was sequenced.
