Predicting Microbiome Function Across Space Is Confounded by Strain-Level Differences and Functional Redundancy Across Taxa
Variation in the microbiome among individual organisms may play a critical role in the relative susceptibility of those organisms to infection, disease, and death. However, predicting microbiome function is difficult because of spatial and temporal variation in microbial diversity, and taxonomic div...
