Comparison of exudate and diluted samples for metataxonomic analysis
Aliquots of exudate and dilution obtained from samples were transferred to transport tubes (Neosample Z, Neoprospecta), and send to Neoprospecta facility. Full DNA of the samples was extracted by using magnetic beads, and subjected to sequencing of the V3-V4 region of 16S rRNA using MiSeq Sequencing (primers 341F and 806R).
