Figure 2

Representation of the concordance between the theoretical composition of the commercial microbial standard and microbial standard sequenced and assembled using the adapted 150 bp paired-end full-length 16S rRNA gene sequencing technique and 16S-amplicon-seq workflow. Horizontal stacked bar charts depicting the composition of sequenced microbial standard and theoretical composition of ZymoBIOMICS™ Microbial Community Standard. A very weak concordance (ρ = 0.117) between the commercial standard and the sequenced mock community was found.
