Musk microbiota 16S rRNA sequencing project
We sequenced the musk microbiota from 5 mated and 5 unmated Chinese forest musk deer males by using the 16S rRNA sequencing method on the Illumina Miseq platform in early December 2014, the Chinese forest musk deer males were provide by Chongqing Institute of Medicinal Plant Cultivation (Chongqing, China).The results showed that more than 95% of the sequences in all samples were found to belong to the six most populated bacterial phyla, namely Firmicutes, Actinobacteria, Fusobacteria, Proteobacteria, Euryarchaeota, Bacteroidetes.
