Fig. 1From: Impact of quality trimming on the efficiency of reads joining and diversity analysis of Illumina paired-end reads in the context of QIIME1 and QIIME2 microbiome analysis frameworksThe number of good reads after quality control and chimera removal using QIIME1 in the real sample (RS; a) and simulated (Sim; b) datasets. Values of the heat map were normalized by dividing each value with the average of the whole data set. Peripheral plots show dots as means, and error-bars represent the standard error of the meansBack to article page
