Complementary Metagenomic Approaches Improve Reconstruction of Microbial Diversity in a Forest Soil

Microbial ecologists have historically used cultivation-based approaches as well as amplicon sequencing and shotgun metagenomics to characterize microbial diversity in soil. However, challenges persist in the study of microbial diversity, including the recalcitrance of the majority of microorganisms...
