Results of the experimentally determined composition of the MOCK Community (MC) at (a) family and (b) genus level with MinION and Illumina NGS techniques. The results are based on 16S rRNA amplicon sequencing. Experimentally determined 16S rRNA gene percentage abundance are compared against the actual composition of the MC as reported by the supplier (i.e. Zymo Research). Data points are an average of duplicate samples for Illumina and triplicate samples for MinION sequencing. Error bars indicate the standard deviation.
