Mock community standards for evaluation of metataxonomic analysis workflows.
Two types of mock community standards have been used in order to examine theability of different bioinformatic pipelines to reconstruct the theoretical 16S relative abundance or yeast composition based on 18S and ITS amplicon sequencing, the performance of Ion Torrent and Illumina NGS platforms by utilizing different PCR primers, PCR cycles and amplicons, as well as the outcome of the in-house DNA extraction protocol.
