Analysis on Metabolic Functions of Stored Rice Microbial Communities by BIOLOG ECO Microplates.

abstract：:The current understanding of human gut microbial community is mainly limited to taxonomic features at the genus level. Here, we examined the human gut microbial community at the species level by metataxonomics. To achieve this purpose, a high-throughput approach involving operational phylogenetic unit analysis of the ...
