Construction of an archaeal genome map from ruminant gastrointestinal tract (PRJCA021193)
As one of the important components of the ruminant gastrointestinal tract microbiome, archaea are involved in many biological processes, especially methanogenesis. However, the diversity and individual metabolic characteristics of archaea in this habitat remain largely understudied, partly due to the lack of a unified reference catalog. We hope to construct a set of ruminant archaea genomes by collecting culturable archaea genomes and metagenome-assembled   genomes.
