Mapping the soil microbial diversity in the hyper-arid region of AlUla
This project aims to characterize the physicochemical and the microbial compositions of the hyper-arid soils in the region of AlUla (Saudi Arabia). The Illumina NovaSeq technology was used to identify the diversity of bacteria and fungi in more than 600 soil samples collected within a kilometric grid. ATXJ-22 and ATXJ-23 contain libraries of 16S-V3V4 amplicons (bacteria) ATXJ-24 and ATXJ-25 contain libraries of ITS2 amplicons (fungi)
The accession and its GCC connection are verified. Registration alone does not establish that the broader research programme remains active.
