Abstract
< 0.05). Analyses at high taxon ranks such as phyla may not give a good representation of the nature of microbial community shifts, and at times may paint an erroneous picture. The use of full-length 16S rRNA gene sequences here yielded a greater taxonomic depth, and some shifts at the lower ranks were discernible.
