Combining 16S rRNA gene variable regions enables high-resolution microbial community profiling

2017-06-06

Abstract excerpt

<h4>Background</h4> Most of our knowledge about the remarkable microbial diversity on Earth comes from sequencing the 16S rRNA gene. The use of next-generation sequencing methods has increased sample number and sequencing depth, but the read length of the most widely used sequencing platforms today is quite short, requiring the researcher to choose a subset of the gene to sequence (typically 16-33% of the total l...
