Abstract excerpt
The interplay between shrimp immune system, its environment, and microbiota contributes to the organism's homeostasis and optimal production. The metagenomic composition is typically studied using 16S rDNA profiling by clustering amplicon sequences into operational taxonomic units (OTUs) and, more recently, amplicon sequence variants (ASVs). Establish the compatibility of the taxonomy, α, and β diversity...
