title: ITS1 gene amplicon sequencing of atmospheric precipitation: May to August samples
design: Genomic DNA was extracted from precipitation samples using the DNeasy PowerSoil Pro Kit. The ITS1 region of the fungal 18S rRNA gene was amplified with primers ITS1F/ITS2. Amplicons were indexed, purified, and pooled for paired-end sequencing (2x250 bp) on an Illumina NovaSeq 6008 platform.
