De-biasing microbiome sequencing data: bacterial morphology-based correction of extraction bias and correlates of chimera formation

De-biasing microbiome sequencing data: bacterial morphology-based correction of extraction bias and correlates of chimera formation

Abstract Introduction Microbiome amplicon sequencing data are distorted by multiple protocol-dependent biases from bacterial DNA extraction, contamination, sequence errors, and chimeras, hindering clinical microbiome applications. In particular, extraction bias is a major confounder in sequencing-ba...
