Improved detection of disease-associated gut microbes using 16S sequence-based biomarkers

Background: Sequencing partial 16S rRNA genes is a cost effective method for quantifying the microbial composition of an environment, such as the human gut. However, downstream analysis relies on binning reads into microbial groups by either considering each unique sequence as a different microbe, q...
