16S rRNA microbiome of gigantidas childressi pediveliger: whole body
Library preparation was carried out following the PCR amplification of the V3-V4 regions of the 16S rRNA gene using primers from Klindworth et al. (2013) S-Dbact-0341-b_S-17/S-Dbact-0785-a-A-2 with illumina overhang adapters attached using the Nextera XT index kit. Products were sequenced on an Illumina Miseq platform using 600 cycle v3 chemistry
