Primer, Pipelines, Parameters: Issues in 16S rRNA Gene Sequencing [PDF]
mSphere, 2021 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were found to be underrepresented or even missing in taxonomic profiles when using unsuitable primer combinations, outdated reference databases, or inadequate pipeline settings.

Controlling for Contaminants in Low-Biomass 16S rRNA Gene Sequencing Experiments
mSystems, 2019 Microbial communities are commonly studied using culture-independent methods, such as 16S rRNA gene sequencing. However, one challenge in accurately characterizing microbial communities is exogenous bacterial DNA contamination, particularly in low ...

De novo species identification using 16S rRNA gene nanopore sequencing [PDF]
PeerJ, 2020 Nanopore sequencing is rapidly becoming more popular for use in various microbiota-based applications. Major limitations of current approaches are that they do not enable de novo species identification and that they cannot be used to verify species ...

Application of 16S rRNA gene sequencing in Helicobacter pylori detection [PDF]
PeerJ, 2020 Helicobacter pylori is one of the major stomach microbiome components, promoting development of inflammation and gastric cancer in humans. H. pylori has a unique ability to transform into a coccoidal form which is difficult to detect by many diagnostic ...

Sequencing 16S rRNA gene fragments using the PacBio SMRT DNA sequencing system [PDF]
PeerJ, 2016 Over the past 10 years, microbial ecologists have largely abandoned sequencing 16S rRNA genes by the Sanger sequencing method and have instead adopted highly parallelized sequencing platforms.

Triplicate PCR Reactions for 16S rRNA Gene Amplicon Sequencing are Unnecessary [PDF]
BioTechniques, 2019 Conventional wisdom holds that PCR amplification for sequencing should employ pooled replicate reactions to reduce bias due to jackpot effects and chimera formation. However, modern amplicon data analysis employs methods that may be less sensitive to such artifacts.

Journal of General and Applied Microbiology, 2015 In this study, the picocyanobacterial species composition of Lake Miyagase was examined by analyzing the 16S rRNA gene in a clone library and by amplicon sequencing using a benchtop next-generation sequencer. Five separate samples were analyzed from different days over a ten-month period. In the picocyanobacterial lineage, 9 and 12 OTUs were identified
