Taxonomic and functional concordance between full-length ONT 16S and ONT shotgun metagenomics in the canine gut microbiome
Background Full-length Oxford Nanopore Technologies (ONT) 16S rRNA sequencing provides a scalable view of microbial community composition and can support phylogeny-based functional prediction, but it is not equivalent to shotgun metagenomics. We asked which biological conclusions are preserved when the same canine feca...
