Piphillin predicts metagenomic composition and dynamics from DADA2-corrected 16S rDNA sequences

Abstract Background Shotgun metagenomic sequencing reveals the potential in microbial communities. However, lower-cost 16S ribosomal RNA (rRNA) gene sequencing provides taxonomic, not functional, observations. To remedy this, we previously introduced Piphillin, a software package that predicts funct...
