Are short‐read amplicons suitable for the prediction of microbiome functional potential? A critical perspective

Abstract Taxonomic marker gene analysis allows uncovering taxonomic profiles of microbial communities at low cost, making it omnipresent in microbiome research. There is an ever‐expanding set of tools to extract further biological information from this kind of data. In this perspective, we enunciate...
