Meta-SourceTracker: Application of Bayesian source tracking to shotgun metagenomics

2019-07-23

Abstract excerpt

<h4>Background: </h4> Microbial source tracking methods are used to determine the origin of contaminating bacteria and other microorganisms, particularly in contaminated water systems. The Bayesian SourceTracker approach uses deep-sequencing marker gene libraries (16S ribosomal RNA) to determine the proportional contributions of bacteria from many potential source environments to a given sink environment simultane...
