Env-micro journal club: Illumina sequencing

This Thursday (6th of November) we will talk more about Illumina sequencing. The paper from last time that compares Illumina with Ion Torrent (Salipante et al. 2014) will be discussed this week.  We also want to discuss a paper that have used the Illumina platform to look at microbial community composition and diversity (Sinclair et al. 2014).
