Taphonomic Implications of Variations in Microbial Community Composition and EPS Production in Conifer Leaf Biofilms?
Here we provide 16S sequences for leaf biofilms collected from Metasequoia, Araucaria, and Podocarpus leaves that were submerged in a natural pond for 2 weeks. The goal of this study is to understand the microbial community composition of leaf biofilms in the early stages of leaf decay and correlated microbial genera with EPS concentrations.
