16S rRNA sequencing of loggerhead sea turtle epizoic biofilms on skin and carapace in Adriatic Sea
The study includes 16S rRNA gene sequences (V4 region) of incidentally caught loggerhead sea turtles' skin and carapace epizoic microbial communities (total 54 samples, 26 turtles). The samples were sequenced by Illumina MiSeq v2 (2x250 bp PE) using primers 515F and 806R (Apprill et al. 2015, Parada et al. 2016) These data are related to the study Kanjer et al. 2022 "Surface microbiota of Mediterranean loggerhead sea turtles unravelled by 16S and 18S amplicon sequencing" bioRxiv 2022.04.01.486708; doi: https://doi.org/10.1101/2022.04.01.486708
