Comparison between 16S rRNA and shotgun sequencing data for the taxonomic characterization of the gut microbiota

Abstract In this paper we compared taxonomic results obtained by metataxonomics (16S rRNA gene sequencing) and metagenomics (whole shotgun metagenomic sequencing) to investigate their reliability for bacteria profiling, studying the chicken gut as a model system. The experimental conditions included...
