Brainstorming - Questions to address

We could add one component for each question/topic that we wish to address during EMOSE 201

Data - Banyuls comparative experiment

The Banyuls Experiment was a three-days fieldwork aimed at generating a new set of data that we can use for the Inter-Comparison of Marine Plankton Metagenome Analysis Methods. It includes "whole water" and "size-fractionated" filtrations using "sterivex" and "142mm-diam-membranes", and compares filtration volumes of 1, 2.5, 10, 100 Litres. Enough replicates from the same water mass ("true" sampling replicates) are available to pool samples and obtain the equivalent of 500L and 1000L samples. Sequencing was done swiftly by Genoscope during the summer holidays, sequences are now (soon) publicly available at ENA and are currently going through the analysis pipeline of EBI
