OTU classification
I used two mock communities (Even and Staggered) of one set of 21 microbial strains created by Haas et al . , who created a reference database of 16S sequences in the strains . Reads for these communities were obtained from HMP validation data (454 Titanium) and from a recent paper by Bokulich et al ., 2013 (Illumina MiSeq).
