Evaluating the information content of shallow shotgun metagenomics

2018-05-12

Abstract excerpt

<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> Although microbial communities are associated with many aspects of human, environmental, plant, and animal health, there exists no cost-effective method for precisely characterizing species and genes present in such communities. While deep whole-genome shotgun (WGS) sequencing provides the highest-level of taxonomic and functional resolution, it is often prohibitively expensive for large-scale s...
