Bacterial communities in sediment from macroalgae growing environment at Weihai, China
Sediment (-5 m) samples were collected at Weihai, China (122.12 N, 37.56 E) on October 15th in 2018, January 15th, May 1st, and August 1st in 2019. To investigate the bacterial communities, 16S rRNA genes were amplified from extracted DNA and sequenced using primers targeting the V3-V4 region on the Illumina HiSeq 250 platform using 2x 250 bp chemistry.
