title: 18S rRNA Seqences  of Rhizophora mucronata rhizosphere soil-associated arbuscular mycorrhizal fungal  community in Mida Creek mangrove, Kenya
design: Total genomic DNA was extracted from Rhizophora mucronata rhizosphere soils. Amplification of the 18S rRNA regions was performed using a PCR approach specifically designed for Illumina instruments. The PCR reaction was purified and barcoded amplicons were pooled in equimolar concentration for sequencing on the illumina Miseq platform.
