Denoising of mtDNA COI amplicons generated from community samples of Collembola from two forest sites on the island of Tenerife with the pipeline of Yu <i>et al.</i> (2012).
<p>Steps 1–3 represent reduction of unique sequence volume by denoising, while steps 4 and 5 further reduce unique sequence volume by the creation of summary clusters of sequences. See Yu <i>et al.</i> (2012) for a detailed explanation of each of the steps. Bracketed values in step 2 represent sequences inferred to be chimeras with the <i>de novo</i> chimera detection function UCHIME in USEARCH, all of which were removed in step 4 of PyroClean.</p
