Diversity of bacterioplankton and plastid SSU rRNA genes from the eastern and western continental shelves of the United States

Creator:

Rappé, Michael Stephen

Abstract:

The phylogenetic diversity of two continental shelf picoplankton communities was examined by analyzing SSU (16S) ribosomal RNA (rRNA) genes amplified from environmental DNA with bacterial-specific primers and the polymerase chain reaction (PCR). Picoplankton populations collected from the pycnocline (10 m) over the eastern continental shelf of the United States near...
