Meta-Apo improves accuracy of 16S-amplicon-based prediction of microbiome function
Abstract Background Due to their much lower costs in experiment and computation than metagenomic whole-genome sequencing (WGS), 16S rRNA gene amplicons have been widely used for predicting the functional profiles of microbiome, via software tools such as PICRUSt 2. However, due to the potential PCR...
