Metagenome-assembled genomes from particle-associated microbial communities in the mesopelagic zone of the Pacific Ocean.

Abstract

We report 10 particle-associated metagenome-assembled genomes (MAGs) from the mesopelagic zone of Pacific Ocean seawaters. MAGs comprise members of Flavobacteria Halomonas, Blastomonas, Brevundimonas, Alteromonas, Shingomonas, Sphingopyxis, Tabrizicola, Proteobacteria, and Gammaproteobacteria. Functional annotation suggests that these bacteria are involved in central particulate organic carbon conversion, nitrogen cycling, and phosphorus cycling.
