The planktonic microbiome of the Great Barrier Reef

TL;DR - Nature introduces a genomic database spanning prokaryotic, viral, and eukaryotic plankton from Great Barrier Reef seawater. The resource supports marine microbiome research and reef ecosystem management.

• Integrates genomes from three major microbial groups.
• Focuses on planktonic communities across the Great Barrier Reef.
• Enables ecosystem-level microbial studies using a shared genomic resource.
• May inform future reef monitoring and management research.
