Abstract:Following the development of high-throughput sequencers, environmental prokaryotic communities could be described by metabarcoding with genetic markers on the 16s domain. However, usual short-read sequencing encounters a limitation in phylogenetic coverage and taxonomic resolution, due to the primers choice and read length. On these critical points, nanopore sequencing, a rising technology, suitable for long-read metabarcoding, was much undervalued because of its relatively higher error rate per read.

scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
