marine metagenome
Samples were collected in May 5-6, 2007 at Sapelo Island, GA from a tidal salt marsh creek connected to Doboy Sound. Nighttime samples (collected between 2245-0100 hrs) were obtained at high tide. Surface water was filtered directly from the creek. 10-15 L water was pumped up from the creek and passed through 5.0 *m, 3.0 *m and then 0.22 *m pore size filters in succession. Total filtration time was ~ 30 min.
