Improved Microbial Community Characterization of 16S rRNA via Metagenome Hybridization Capture Enrichment

Environmental microbial diversity is often investigated from a molecular perspective using 16S ribosomal RNA (rRNA) gene amplicons and shotgun metagenomics. While amplicon methods are fast, low-cost, and have curated reference databases, they can suffer from amplification bias and are limited in gen...
