Termite cultivation project
This project barcoded bacterial and fungal microbial communities in samples related to several termite species. Samples were collected in French Guiana, Papua New Guinea and Cameroon. We sequenced microbial communities living in the guts of the species Anoplotermes banksi, Cephalotermes sp., Cubitermes sp., Microcerotermes sp. and Nasutitermes sp. We also sampled related termite environments associated with each sampled species: soil or wood food substrate and nest material.  We also cultivated microorganisms from each sampled environment (except guts), and determined their  relevant macroscopic characteristics, and further elucidated their genera and species through Sanger sequencing.  The sequencing strategy (barcoding) consisted of a first step of amplification with tagged primers and sequencing by pools. The pool information can be extracted from the list below (tab separated).  sample-id sample-id f-barcode-sequence r-barcode-sequence geographical-location replicate sample-origin seq-type species worker-type pool pool_b #q2:types #q2:types categorical categorical categorical numeric categorical categorical categorical categorical numeric categorical CAM_Cephalo_GUTS_1 Cep_Gu_1 TCCACTTGTGTGCCAGCMGCCGCGGTAA TATTCAACCGGACTACHVGGGTWTCTAAT Cameroon 1 Gut 16s Cephalotermes sp.
