MICRObiology
During a research poster session, a large quantity of coffee was accidentally spilled into the soil
from the catering table outside Buhl. You seize this opportunity to see how the natural soil
communities react to a sudden influx of caffeine! You collect a coffee-saturated sample and a
control sample. You have also have access to an Illumina Mi-SEQ, one of the best next-gen
sequencers around. Outline a new culture-independent experiment that would allow you to
determine how the expression of bacterial genes changes between the regular soil and the soil
that was saturated with coffee..
