Metagenomic shotgun sequencing of ocean water from Patagonia (metagenome)
We filtered 40 L of 5-meter deep ocean water from Northern Patagonia using Sterivex PES 0.22 um filters. We then extracted DNA from the filters using Silica spin columns. DNA extracts were sequenced in an Illumina MiSeq machine. Libraries were prepared using Illumina TruSeq kits.
