Figure 8

Effect of Sequencing Read Length on Taxonomic Classification. Simulated reads of various lengths (200 bp - 1400 bp) were taken from full-length 16S rRNA gene sequences (starting from several universal bacterial primer sites) and classified with the RDP Classifier. Read classifications were considered correct if they matched the taxonomic group of their full-length counterparts. Values are averages. See Additional File 1 for detailed classification percentages at each primer site and read length shown in this figure.
