Description

Here, we report the metagenomes from five anaerobic bioreactors, operated under different conditions, that were fed carbohydrate-rich thin stillage from a corn starch ethanol plant. The putative functions of the abundant taxa identified here will inform future studies of microbial communities involved in valorizing this and other low-value agroindustrial residues.

Data Access

Raw metagenomic sequence data and MAGs are available in NCBI GenBank under BioProject accession number PRJNA768492. All information on library construction and sequence can be found using JGI GOLD Study identification number Gs0150020. All custom scripts are available on GitHub.
