Data on microbial diversity of camel milk microbiota determined by 16S rRNA gene sequencing.

ABSTRACT: Raw camel milk samples were collected from three geographical locations (south, north and middle Kuwait) during two seasons. Next generation sequencing of the V3-V4 regions of the 16S rRNA gene was used to analyze the bacterial community in camel milk. DNA was extracted from one hundred thirty-three samples, and libraries were prepared using custom fusion primers of the 16S rRNA gene and sequenced on Illumina HiSeq 2500 platform. 16S rRNA gene sequences were aligned against the SILVA database SSU release 138. The high-throughput sequencing data are available at the NCBI database under the Bioproject PRJNA814013. This work describes camel milk's bacterial diversity among different geographical locations and seasons. The distribution of alpha diversity measures among camel milk sample groups
