Ultra-High Multiplexing Enables Near-Full-Length 16S rRNA Gene Amplicon Sequencing of Over 1,200 Gut Microbiome Samples on a Single Nanopore Flow Cell

Next-generation sequencing (NGS) of the prokaryotic 16S rRNA gene revolutionized gut microbiome research two decades ago. However, short read lengths remain an inherent limitation of platforms such as the widely used Illumina platforms (2 x 150-300 bp). Recent advances in Oxford Nanopore Technologies (ONT) flow cell ch...
