Using Mothur to Determine Bacterial Community Composition and Structure in 16S Ribosomal RNA Datasets
{{output}}
The 16S ribosomal RNA (rRNA) gene is one of the scaffolding molecules of the prokaryotic ribosome. Because this gene is slow to evolve and has very well conserved regions, this gene is used to reconstruct phylogenies in prokaryotes. Universal primers can be us... ...
