Marker genes as predictors of shared genomic function

Marker genes as predictors of shared genomic function

Abstract Background Although high-throughput marker gene studies provide valuable insight into the diversity and relative abundance of taxa in microbial communities, they do not provide direct measures of their functional capacity. Recently, scientists have shown a general desire to predict function...
