Optofluidic Single-Cell Genome Amplification of Sub-micron Bacteria in the Ocean Subsurface

Optofluidic Single-Cell Genome Amplification of Sub-micron Bacteria in the Ocean Subsurface

Optofluidic single-cell genome amplification was used to obtain genome sequences from sub-micron cells collected from the euphotic and mesopelagic zones of the northwestern Sargasso Sea. Plankton cells were visually selected and manually sorted with an optical trap, yielding 20 partial genome sequen...
