Predominant Marine Microbial Taxa extracted from the SILVA Database

Predominant Marine Microbial Taxa extracted from the SILVA Database, as described in Overmann, J., Lepleux, C. (2016). Marine Bacteria and Archaea: Diversity, Adaptations, and Culturability. In: Stal, L., Cretoiu, M. (eds) The Marine Microbiome. Springer, Cham. https://doi.org/10.1007/978-3-319-33000-6_2. 

We extracted the specific microbial child clauses from the SILVA database and curated the headers as follows:

• The species name's epithet was removed, and any duplicate generic names were eliminated.
• We removed non-alphabetic characters from the list, such as /*-_ and numbers
• Additionally, we excluded names shorter than four characters and those containing more than two consecutive identical letters.
