data-physeq {microbial}

The physeq data was modified from the (Data) Global patterns of 16S rRNA diversity at a depth of millions of sequences per sample (2011)

Description

Published in PNAS in early 2011. This work compared the microbial communities from 25 environmental samples and three known “mock communities” – a total of 9 sample types – at a depth averaging 3.1 million reads per sample. Authors were able to reproduce diversity patterns seen in many other published studies, while also invesitigating technical issues/bias by applying the same techniques to simulated microbial communities of known
