Despite advances in sequencing, lack of standardization makes comparisons across studies challenging and hampers insights into the structure function microbial communities multiple habitats on a planetary scale. Here we present multi-omics analysis diverse set 880 community samples collected for Earth Microbiome Project. We include amplicon (16S, 18S, ITS) shotgun metagenomic sequence data, untargeted metabolomics data (liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry gas chromatography...
Marcellus Shale occurs at depths of 1.5-2.5 km (5000 to 8000 feet) where most geologists generally assume that thermogenic processes are the only source natural gas. However, methanogens in produced fluids and isotopic signatures biogenic methane this deep shale have recently been discovered. This study explores whether those indigenous or introduced during drilling hydraulic fracturing. DNA was extracted from core samples, preinjected fluids, analyzed using Miseq sequencing 16s rRNA genes....
