16S metagenomic sequencing
http://www.ebi.ac.uk/efo/EFO_0030055
An amplicon sequencing approach targeting the variable regions of the 16S ribosomal RNA gene. This is commonly used to quantify the abundance of different microbial taxa in an environmental sample, based on how frequently a taxa's specific rRNA sequence is observed in the sequencing data.
