- Every base matters: assessing small subunit rRNA primers for marine microbiomes with mock communities, time series and global field samplesEnvironmental Microbiology · 2015 · 4,331 citations
Microbial community analysis via high-throughput sequencing of amplified 16S rRNA genes is an essential microbiology tool. We found the popular primer pair 515F (515F-C) and 806R greatly underestimated (e.g. SAR11) or overestimated (e.g. Gammaproteobacteria) common marine taxa. We evaluated marine…
