Taxonomic classification of bacterial 16S rRNA genes using short sequencing reads: evaluation of effective study designs.
Massively parallel high throughput sequencing technologies allow us to interrogate the microbial composition of biological samples at unprecedented resolution. The typical approach is to perform high-throughout sequencing of 16S rRNA genes, which are then taxonomically classified based on similarity...
