microbial mat metagenome Genome sequencing and assembly
A culture of Chlorella desiccata UTEX 2437 was purchased from the UTEX culture collection. C. desiccata 2437 was originally isolated from a microbial mat in Laguna Figueroa, Baja California, Mexico. This is one of eight bacteria identified and sequenced from this sample. An axenic version, Chlorella desiccata UTEX 2526 was derived from this culture.
