DNA Deposition

The following information was supplied regarding the deposition of DNA sequences:

Sequence data is deposited in the SRA as PRJNA385181.

Data Deposition

The following information was supplied regarding data availability:

Because this was a class project, code was generated by 12 students independently such that object names are not consistent. Collating these into a single readable format would be a massive undertaking. I regret not having organized this better at the onset and consider it an important lesson learned!

Funding

This work was supported by NSF grant #1255972 to Amend and NSF fellowship #1329626 to Cobian. The funders had no role in study design, data collection and analysis, decision to publish, or preparation of the manuscript.
