Genomic amplicon data of supraglacial samples for the 18S gene
The extracted DNA was amplified using eukaryotic primers  targeting the 18S rRNA gene (528F: 5-GCGGTAATTCCAGCTCCAA-3 and 706R:  5-AATCCRAGAATTTCACCTCT-3) according to Cheung et al. (2010). The samples were pooled equimolarly, and the final library was sequenced on an Illumina MiSeq using the V2 500-cycle kit (Illumina Inc., San Diego, California, USA), generating 2250 bp reads.
