16S rRNA metabarcoding of Microseira wollei from Lake St. Clair USA.
Samples taken along a transect in Lake St Clair USA, focused on the cyanobacterium Microseira wollei, to determine if genetic tools could be useful for delineating the spatial extent of an M. wollei benthic bloom in locations where it cannot be visually identified from the surface. DNA was extracted from surface lake water that had been concentrated on a filter.
