12 Workpackage 2 : Clones libraries Solve problem of cyanobacteria/ plastid clone libraries - potential use of a 23S rRNA primer Should we construct other plastid/cyano clone libraries? Where? Low oxygen zone - Chile Arabian Gulf Screening of samples prior to clone libraries by DGGE Should we do more eukaryotic clone libraries? Where ? Bloom evolution (Roscoff) Oslo fjord in conjunction with TEM PROSOPE cruise after screening of samples Red Sea from 2000 workshop Antarctic Should we probe clone libraries from underrepresented groups (cf Haptophytes etc...) Which clones should we completely sequence?

13 Workpackages 3-4 : Probes List of groups to be targeted Suggestion: for FISH it would be best to only have Class level probes while for DNA chips we could have both class level and species specific probes knowing that we have no limitation in terms of the number of probes that can be used. See below for rough list based on what we found in clone libs. List of probes to be designed Classes Genus, species What will be the focus of each partner in terms of probe validation? Probe detection: FISH by microscopy and flow cytometry Quantitative PCR Dot blot DNA chips
