From: Full-length 16S rRNA gene amplicon analysis of human gut microbiota using MinION™ nanopore sequencing confers species-level resolution

Fig. 2

Accurate taxonomic assignment afforded by full-length MinION™ sequencing of the 16S rRNA gene. Classification accuracy compared between full-length (V1-V9) and partial (V3-V4) 16S rRNA gene sequencing data obtained from composition profiling of the ten-species mock community. The donut charts show the proportions of reads correctly assigned to the species constituting the mock community. The percentage of correctly classified reads is shown in the center hole. ND: not determined (species-level resolution is not possible for Escherichia)
