Approximation of a Microbiome Composition Shift by a Change in a Single Balance between Two Groups of Taxa
Linking microbiome composition obtained from metagenomic or 16S rRNA sequencing to various factors poses a real challenge. The compositional approach to such data is well described: a so-called isometric log-ratio (ILR) transform provides correct treatment of relative abundances. Most existing compo...
