![]() Description
Amplicon dataset of Bacteria (16S ssu rRNA) living around mummified seal carcasses in the Antarctic Dry Valleys. more
Soil samples (>10 g each) were collected aseptically at a depth of 0.05m. Samples were stored in sterile plastic containers at −80 °C until analysis. Study Extent: On 30 January 2006, a mummified crabeater seal was carried from its original resting site near Lake Miers (S 78°05′36″, E 163°51′22″), Miers Valley, Victoria Land, Antarctica, to a new site of similar geomorphology 20 m north. Samples for amplicon sequencing were taken from the original site before transportation (austral summer 2005), the new site before transportation (control, austral summer 2006), and the new site after incubation (austral summer 2009).
