BCCM - Belgian Coordinated Collections of Micro-organisms
BCCM/ULC is a small and dedicated public collection, currently containing one of the largest collections of documented (sub)polar cyanobacteria worldwide. The BCCM/ULC collection is hosted by the Centre for Protein Engineering (the Unit) of the University of Liège. The host …
Amplicon sequencing dataset (454 pyrosequencing) of Archaea (16S), Bacteria (16S) and Eukaryote (18S) in the water column of lake Fryxell and Lake Bonney, in the McMurdo Dry valleys (Antarctica).
We studied marine bacterioplankton in the Scotia Sea in June 2008 and in the northwest Weddell Sea in March to mid April 2009 in waters proximal to three free-drifting icebergs (SS-1, A-43k, and C-18a), in a region with a high …
Amplicon sequencing dataset (Illumina MiSeq) of Bacterial and Archaea microbial diversity (based on the 16S ssu rRNA gene) in surface sediment samples, taken along a temperature gradient (three points, each with three replicates) on two different geothermal active sites (+-10km …
This database contains information on the so far registered specimens in the fish collection of the Swedish Museum of Natural History. The database is managed with The Artedian collection management system in MS-Access. The main tables describe collecting events and …
Amplicon sequencing dataset (454 pyrosequencing) of Bacteria (16S ssu rRNA gene, v6 region) in surface and deep waters of the Arctic and the Southern oceans. This dataset is part of the International Census of Marine Microbes (ICoMM).
Metatranscriptome dataset (Illumina HiSeq) of RNA from soil microbial mat samples in Arctic (Svalbard) and Antarctic (Livingston Island) polar tundra environments

SCAR - Microbial Antarctic Resource System
Methane emissions from aquatic and terrestrial ecosystems play a crucial role in global warming, which is particularly affecting high-latitude ecosystems. As major contributors to methane emissions in natural environments, the microbial communities involved in methane production and oxidation deserve a …
The Chordate collection (except Tissue Bank) contains more than 30,000 specimens, 24.000 of which have geographical origin documented. Collection grows annually by donations and passive recollections. Specimens come from several sources: nature, the Zoological Park of Barcelona, and animal recovery …
Antarctic Biodiversity Information Facility (ANTABIF)
The objective of RAMS is to compile and manage an authoritative taxonomic list of species occurring in the Antarctic marine environment, for establishing a standard reference for marine biodiversity research, conservation and sustainable management. The taxonomic scope of RAMS covers …
