Full-length 16S sequencing amplification can reveal greater microbial diversity while reducing amplification bias in complex ...

Microbiome sequencing has a reputation issue. From the outside, it appears to be one of modern biology's most powerful tools: sequence the entire sample and recreate the microscopic world within. It ...

Scientists debut Greengenes2, a massive reference database that could be used to reconcile years of microbiome studies. Two leading sequencing techniques are no longer at odds, thanks to an ...

Two key sequencing techniques are no longer at odds, thanks to an international effort led by scientists at University of California (UC) San Diego. The researchers have developed a reference database ...
