This dataset contains Synechococcus cyanobacteria silica quotas from cultures grown over several generations in Sargasso Sea water with various mole ratios of Si:P.  Experiments took place at the Krause Lab at Dauphin Island Sea Laboratory (30.2501,-88.0788) between June to August 2015.

These results are also presented in the following paper:
