Seven assembled metagenoms from a metagenomic sequencing (Illumina HiSeq; paired-end) sample taken during a phytoplankton bloom in the Amundsen Sea (Antarctica, Southern Ocean)
Illumina sequencing data of bacterial communities in 52 soil samples from the western Sør Rondane Mountains (Dronning Maud Land, East Antarctica).The samples were taken along broad environmental gradients, including different types of bedrock, in an area covering nearly 1000 km2.
Liquid water has been known to occur beneath the Antarctic ice sheet for more than 40 years,but only recently have these subglacial aqueous environments been recognized as microbial ecosystems that may influence biogeochemical transformations on a global scale. Here we …
