Massively parallel sequencing of single cells by emulsion-fusion PCR links functional genes with phylogenetic markers. freshwater metagenome

We developed a technique that permits determining phylogenetic diversity of functional members of microbial communities. We demonstrated the technique by profiling the phylogenetic diversity of the hosts of dissimilatory sulfite reductase gene dsrB.

本研究开发了一种可用于测定微生物群落中功能类群系统发育多样性的技术。我们通过对异化亚硫酸盐还原酶（dissimilatory sulfite reductase）基因dsrB的宿主的系统发育多样性进行表征，验证了该技术的有效性。
