Alkaline hot spring Targeted Locus (Loci)
The archaeal community within a hot spring in the Bechler region of Yellowstone National Park was analyzed by 16S rRNA gene composition with the objectives to 1) describe community composition 2) compare the universality of archaeal-specific PCR primers on the same sample and 3) compare PCR derived results against existing metagenomic data for the sample
