The power of microbiome studies: some considerations on which alpha and beta metrics to use and how to report analysis the results

2021-07-09

Abstract excerpt

<title>Abstract</title> <p>Since sequencing techniques become less expensive, larger sample sizes are applicable for microbiota studies. The aim of this study is to show how, and to what extent, different diversity metrics and different compositions of the microbiota influence the needed sample size to observed dissimilar groups. Empirical 16S rRNA amplicon sequence data obtained from animal experiments, observat...
