Large amplicon sequencing dataset (Illumina MiSeq) targeting Bacteria/Archaea (16S ssu rRNA gene) and Eukaryota (18S ssu rRNA gene) from samples taken in the Arctic marine environment, following the Earth Microbiome Project protocol.
Dataset consisting of amplicon sequencing samples (16S ssu rRNA targeting Bacteria), shotgun meta genome samples and RNA-seq samples of Paleomats at the shores of lake Vanda, McMurdo Dry Valleys, Antarctica
Microbial dataset containing sequenced genes (ureC gene) from Thaumarchaeota from the Beaufort Sea (Arctic) and the Amundsen Sea (Antarctica), as well as a metagenome (454 pyrosequencing) the Beaufort Sea.
Antarctic surface oceans are well-studied during summer when irradiance levels are high, sea ice is melting and primary productivity is at a maximum. Coincident with this timing, the bacterioplankton respond with significant increases in secondary productivity. Little is known about …
Amplicon sequencing dataset of microbial eukaryotes (18S ssh rRNA gene v9) in water and sea ice collected in the Ross Sea, Antarctica during the summer of 2011. Prior to sequencing, mixotroph abundances were determined using tracer ingestion.
BCCM - Belgian Coordinated Collections of Micro-organisms
BCCM/LMG is a bacterial culture collection currently comprising over 25.000 well-characterized strains. The biological origin of our collection is very broad, including bacterial isolates from food, clinical, veterinary, agricultural, aquatic and other environmental sources. This way, the biological resources of …
Amplicon sequencing dataset (454 pyrosequencing) of Bacteria and Archaea (16S ssu rRNA gene) in three sets of environmentally distinct soil samples on King George Island (Antarctica)
Recent applications of molecular genetics to edaphic microbial communities of the McMurdo Dry Valleys and elsewhere have rejected a long-held belief that Antarctic soils contain extremely limited microbial diversity. The Inter-Valley Soil Comparative Survey aims to elucidate the factors shaping …
The investigation of bacterioplankton, mat and sediment microbial communities from the Bratina Island meltwater ponds in Late November 2009, January 2012 and January 2013 and from meltwater ponds at the mouth of the Miers Valley in January 2013 using 16S …
Metatranscriptome dataset (targeting all mRNA) from Southern Ocean sea water samples (1 control, 3 treatments, 3 replicates per treatment), near the ice edge at McMurdo Sound (Antarctica). All samples were incubated 24h at 0°C, ~45 μmol photons m-2 s-1 of …
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 …
amplicon dataset of Bacteria (16S ssh rRNA marker gene) found Antarctic marine sediments (Admiralty Bay and Bransfield Strait), sampled in December 2008.

SCAR - Microbial Antarctic Resource System
Amplicon sequencing dataset (454 pyrosequencing) of microbial diversity (Bacteria, based on the 16S ssu rRNA gene) in the Amundsen Sea Polynya. This dataset was used in a study where the Amundsen Sea Polynya (Southern Ocean) was used as a model …
Amplicon sequencing data of the 16S SSU rRNA marker gene of bacteria in four Mesososm experiments that spanned the spring transitional period (August–December 2013) in surface waters of the Western Antarctic Peninsula (WAP). Each mesocosm consisted of nearshore surface seawater …
Amplicon sequencing dataset (Illumina MiSeq) of Fungal microbes (ITS marker gene) in two distinct layers (separated by 12cm of ice) of liquid high salinity brines of one lake in the Tarmac Flat area (In the North of McMurdo Dry Valley, …
Amplicon sequencing dataset (454 pyrosequencing) of Bacteria in different types of young sea ice and sea ice brines in the Arctic ocean (North-East coast of Greenland)
Amplicon sequencing dataset (454 pyrosequencing) of Bacteria (16S ssu rRNA gene, v3 region) in hypolithic and soil environments of Miers Valley, Antarctica
