INTRODUCTION This directory is part of the official repository of public bioinformatics data sets available from IFREMER research teams. PROJECT phobi Seals: a potential source of bacterial and viral fecal contamination of the littoral? PUBLICATION Published to ENA under the accession number PRJEB64019. See: https://www.ebi.ac.uk/ena/browser/view/PRJEB64019 DOI: https://doi.org/10.12770/76beca06-ac02-49ce-810e-94f9c121e868 DATA ORGANIZATION Project is organized as follows: data is distributed within several sub-folders all of them being named using the EDAM Ontology (https://www.ebi.ac.uk/ols/ontologies/edam). 1/ Raw data is available from the 'data' sub-folder. 2/ Results from processing raw data is available in 'operation' sub-folder. 3/ In turn, sub-folders within 'data' and 'operation' rely on EDAM terms depending on data type (data sub-folder) or operation type (operation sub-folder). DIRECTORY CONTENT Raw fastq files are located in data/dna-sequence-raw and data/rna-sequence-raw folders. Metadata are located in data/report/athena/phobi_new and data/report/athena/phobi_viral where one can find 2021_16S-metagenomics-sequencing_PHOBI_NEW.xlsx and 2021_viral-metagenomics-sequencing_PHOBI.xlsx Excel files. Metadata are also accessible through data/report/athena/phobi_new/XML and data/report/athena/phobi_viral/XML XML files. DATA RETRIEVAL wget -r -np -nH --cut-dirs=4 ftp://ftp.ifremer.fr/ifremer/dataref/bioinfo/sg2m/phobi Command-line explained: -r: is for recursively download; -np: is for no parent ascending; -nH: is for disabling creation of directory having name same as URL i.e. ftp.ifremer.fr; --cut-dirs: is for ignoring number of parent directories. see https://data-dataref.ifremer.fr/bioinfo/ifremer/README.txt for more details.
