Unexpected results PCR using eucaryotic, i.e. Medlin primers: „Normal“ sequencing results „normal size“ 18S PCR prod. Clones could not be sequenced with 528F. Therefore universal primers were used: all were archaebacterial! „small size“ 18S PCR prod.
Picoplankton consists of many different classes A significant number of picoplankton species is heterotrophic There are sequences that may belong to new classes There is a high variability among samples Distribution of classes within samples from different sites is very similar Perhaps the most important picoplankton class is the Dinophyta Summary/eucaryotic picoplankton
