Abstract
Assessing the functional capability and redundancy of a microbial community is a major challenge in environmental microbiology. To address this challenge, we developed Tax4Fun2, a R-based tool for the rapid prediction of functional profiles and functional redundancy of prokaryotic communities from 16S rRNA gene sequences. By incorporating user-defined, habitat-specific genomic information, the accuracy and robustness of predicted functional profiles can be substantially enhanced.
