Cite Dataset

Bacteria in the water and bacteria from the same location but directly associated (in the cuticle) with copepods were collected from several locations world-wide with pumps and nets from saline and fresh water.  The acquired DNA was sequenced and sent to GenBank.  The links are here.

These data will be available after January, 2017.
