Greengenes2
Greengenes2 is a comprehensive reference database and phylogenetic tree for 16S rRNA gene sequences that unifies microbial data from multiple sources into a single coherent framework. It provides standardized taxonomic assignments and phylogenetic placement for microbiome research and enables consistent analysis across different studies and sequencing platforms.
