High-Resolution Taxonomic Assessment Using PacBio 16S rRNA Sequencing of Farm Animal Slurry, Broiler Waste and Anaerobically Digested Wastewater Treatment Sludge and Description of Soil Microbiota

The application of organic wastes as fertilisers is important for sustainable agriculture, provided that resulting changes in microbial communities do not disrupt nutrient cycling or soil fertility. To the authors’ knowledge, this study was the first to use PacBio 16S rRNA sequen...
