Analysis of oral bacterial communities: comparison of HOMINGS with a tree-based approach implemented in QIIME

Background: Molecular taxonomic assignments in oral microbial communities have been made using probe-matching approaches, but never compared to those obtained by more readily accepted tree-based approaches. Objective:  To compare community composition profiles obtained from a probe-matching approach...
