Abstract: | Background One objective of metagenomics is to reconstruct information about specific uncultured organisms from fragmentary environmental
DNA sequences. We used the genome of an isolate of the marine alphaproteobacterium SAR11 ('Candidatus Pelagibacter ubique'; strain HTCC1062), obtained from the cold, productive Oregon coast, as a query sequence to study variation
in SAR11 metagenome sequence data from the Sargasso Sea, a warm, oligotrophic ocean gyre. |
