Protist diversity in a permanently ice-covered Antarctic Lake during the polar night transition

Amplicon sequencing dataset targeting eukaryote microorganisms (18S ssu rRNA marker gene) in permanently ice-covered lakes in the McMurdo Dry Valleys (Antarctica). Samples (n=89) were taken in the photic zone of the east lobe (ELB) and west lobe (WLB) of the chemically stratified Lake Bonney.
