Evaluation of 16S rRNA Hypervariable Regions for Bioweapon Species Detection by Massively Parallel Sequencing

<div>Top reads of the simulated bacterial DNA mock community (<i>S</i>. <i>enterica</i>, <i>V</i>. <i>cholerae</i>, and <i>E</i>. <i>coli)</i> in human DNA background sequenced in Ion Torrent PGM platform mapped according 364 target sequences. Shigella mapping is also included. Different GE concentrations are in duplicate. OGE_I and II; 5 GE_I and II; 100 GE_I and II; 2,000 GE_I and II.</div>
