Antarctic sea ice diatom Nitzschia sp.

This dataset includes the genome assembly and predicted proteome of an Antarctic sea-ice diatom, Nitzschia sp. (most likely Nitzschia stellata). It also contains the endogenous viral element (EVE) sequences identified within this diatom genome, as well as the results of comparative genomic analyses between Antarctic sea-ice diatoms and non-polar diatoms. The Nitzschia sp. genome assembly was obtained through metagenomic binning of Antarctic sea-ice samples.
