=CONCATENATE("amplicon (16S) sequencing of experimental microcosm ",B63, " at day 7 of the experiment (replicate 1)")
DNA was extracted using the Quick-DNA Fungal/Bacterial 96 kit (Zymo). Following DNA extraction, the V5-V6 region of the bacterial 16S rRNA gene was amplified. Sequencing was performed on the Illumina MiSeq platform with v3 chemistry.
