Reliability of species detection in 16S microbiome analysis: Comparison of five widely used pipelines and recommendations for a more standardized approach
16 Feb 2023
Abstract excerpt
The use of NGS-based testing of the bacterial microbiota is often impeded by inconsistent or non-reproducible results, especially when applying different analysis pipelines and reference databases. We investigated five frequently used software packages by submitting the same monobacterial datasets to them, representing the V1-2 and the V3-4 regions of the 16S-rRNA gene of 26 well characterized strains, which were...
