Comparison of V3-V4 16S regions for profiling Litopenaeus vannamei microbiota
The study aims to assess differences in the gut and hepatopancreas microbiota diversity in Litopenaeus vannamei that is recovered depending on the choice of the hypervariable regions of the 16S. We have compared the outputs from the V3, V4, and V3-V4 regions. Applications are mostly academic but will enable a more precise study of the microbiota, which will in turn be beneficial for varied biotechnological applications.
