18S rRNA gene amplicons, Mid Cayman Rise and Gorda Ridge substrate Raw sequence reads
V4 hypervariable region of the 18S rRNA gene (PCR amplified). Samples derive from expedition to the Mid-Cayman Rise (2020) to sample deep-sea hydrothermal vents and conduct protistan grazing experiments. Additional samples originate from microcolonizer experiments, where various substrates were incubated at a deep-sea hydrothermal vent at the Gorda Ridge (2019).
