High-throughput sequencing (HTS) of gene amplicons is a preferred method of assessing microbial community composition, because it rapidly provides information from a large number of samples at high taxonomic resolution and low costs. However, mock community studies show that HTS data poorly reflect the actual relative abundances of individual phylo...
