By using group-specific primers, the signature sequence of specific species / functional microorganisms can be detected. It can reflect the composition structure of the specific group, find their distribution characteristics and reveal the diversity and composition differences between samples.
Advantages
According to the length of amplified fragments, the second / third generation sequencing platform can be selected flexibly to achieve research goals of specific functional microbiota.
Redox cycle for carbon, nitrogen and sulfur
Examples of group specific primers
