Flush With Data (or) Optimizing and Validating the Efficacy of Free and Computationally Simple 16S Metabarcoding Approaches for Use in Wastewater Surveillance. [PDF]
Environ MicrobiolWastewater treatment plant 16S rRNA sequencing data was used to create simulated read sets of known species composition and relative abundances. These sequence sets were used to optimize current 16S metabarcoding analysis pipelines for the complexity of municipal wastewater samples.
