Primer, Pipelines, Parameters: Issues in 16S rRNA Gene Sequencing [PDF]
In 16S rRNA gene sequencing, certain bacterial genera were found to be underrepresented or even missing in taxonomic profiles when using unsuitable primer combinations, outdated reference databases, or inadequate pipeline settings.

Background The 16S rRNA gene is used extensively in bacterial phylogenetics, in species delineation, and now widely in microbiome studies. However, the gene suffers from intragenomic heterogeneity, and reports of recombination and an unreliable ...

Defining reference sequences for Nocardia species by similarity and clustering analyses of 16S rRNA gene sequence data. [PDF]
BACKGROUND: The intra- and inter-species genetic diversity of bacteria and the absence of 'reference', or the most representative, sequences of individual species present a significant challenge for sequence-based identification.

Background The low cost of 16S rRNA gene sequencing facilitates population-scale molecular epidemiological studies. Existing computational algorithms can resolve 16S rRNA gene sequences into high-resolution amplicon sequence variants (ASVs), which ...

16S ribosomal RNA currently represents the most important target of study in bacterial ecology. Its use for the description of bacterial diversity is, however, limited by the presence of variable copy numbers in bacterial genomes and sequence variation ...

Do we need a standardized 16S rRNA gene amplicon sequencing analysis protocol for poultry microbiota research? [PDF]
Bacteria are the major component of poultry gastrointestinal tract (GIT) microbiota and play an important role in host health, nutrition, physiology regulation, intestinal development, and growth.

A comparison of 16S rRNA-gene and 16S rRNA-transcript derived microbial communities in bulk and rhizosphere soils [PDF]
Root exudates in a plant’s rhizosphere alters microbial community membership and activity, which can in turn alter a plant’s health and fitness. In this study we characterized bacterial community composition, using 16S rRNA-gene (DNA) sequencing to ...

Species Identification and Profiling of Complex Microbial Communities Using Shotgun Illumina Sequencing of 16S rRNA Amplicon Sequences [PDF]
The high throughput and cost-effectiveness afforded by short-read sequencing technologies, in principle, enable researchers to perform 16S rRNA profiling of complex microbial communities at unprecedented depth and resolution. Existing Illumina sequencing
