Linking Associations of Rare Low-Abundance Species to Their Environments by Association Networks
Studies of microbial communities by targeted sequencing of rRNA genes lead to recovering numerous rare low-abundance taxa with unknown biological roles. We propose to study associations of such rare organisms with their environments by a computational framework based on transformation of the data in...
