Elucidating the Beta-Diversity of the Microbiome: from Global Alignment to Local Alignment

Quantitative comparison among microbiomes can link microbial beta-diversity to environmental features, thus enabling prediction of ecosystem properties or dissection of host-microbiome interaction. However, to compute beta-diversity, current methods mainly employ the entire community profiles of ta...
