Picoeukaryote metagenomepMany sequences from picoeukaryotes were found in DNA sequence data assembled from Sargasso seawater./p Abstract Background: With genome sequencing becoming more and more affordable, environmental shotgun sequencing of the microorganisms present in an environment generates a challenging amount of sequence data for the scientific community. These sequence data enable the diversity of the microbial world and the metabolic pathways within an environment to be investigated, a
