El Zacaton microbial wall mat diversity
The purpose of this project was to characterize the microbial community in a limestone sinkhole in Mexico.  44 DNA templates were PCR amplified with barcoded primers and sequenced with a 454 sequencer.  The goal was to determine not only the identity of microbes in wall biomats in Zacaton, but their distribution with depth.    <a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/entrez/query.fcgi?holding=&db=Nucleotide&cmd=search&term=FJ484010:FJ485598[accn]" >FJ484010-FJ485598 </a> are 16S ribosomal RNA sequences associated with this study.  Bacterial genomic sequences have been deposited in the Short Read Archive.
