1. Ultra-high-throughput microbial community analysis on the Illumina HiSeq and MiSeq platformsThe ISME Journal · 2012 · 9,303 citations

   DNA sequencing continues to decrease in cost with the Illumina HiSeq2000 generating up to 600 Gb of paired-end 100 base reads in a ten-day run. Here we present a protocol for community amplicon sequencing on the HiSeq2000 and MiSeq Illumina…

2. Optimizing taxonomic classification of marker-gene amplicon sequences with QIIME 2’s q2-feature-classifier pluginMicrobiome · 2018 · 6,287 citations

   BACKGROUND: Taxonomic classification of marker-gene sequences is an important step in microbiome analysis. RESULTS: We present q2-feature-classifier ( https://github.com/qiime2/q2-feature-classifier ), a QIIME 2 plugin containing several novel machine-learning and alignment-based methods for taxonomy classification. We evaluated and optimized several commonly…

3. Soil bacterial and fungal communities across a pH gradient in an arable soilThe ISME Journal · 2010 · 4,320 citations

   Soils collected across a long-term liming experiment (pH 4.0-8.3), in which variation in factors other than pH have been minimized, were used to investigate the direct influence of pH on the abundance and composition of the two major soil microbial…
