This protocol is aimed at amplifying the 18S rRNA hypervariable region 9 (18S V9) in eukaryotes with a focus on microbial eukaryotes. Amplicons generated using this protocol can then be sequenced using the Illumina platform. The primers (1391F, EukBr) utilized in this protocol are based on the primer utilized in Amaral-Zettler et al 2009 and the Earth Microbiome Project (EMP).
