Annual trends in the types of microbiome and related data collected in projects, FY2012–2016. This figure depicts trends in the primary microbiome and related data collected in these projects. These data have been categorized into one of six main types and include data from 16S rRNA gene sequence analysis, data from 16S analysis combined with data from immunological analyses, data from 16S analysis combined with data from microbiome multiomic (e.g., transcriptomic, proteomic, metabolomic) analyses, data from microbiome multiomic analyses alone, and data from microbiome multiomic analyses combined with data from immunological analyses. Computational data included modeling outputs, and data from computational or statistical analyses of pre-existing data. All other data types were combined into “All other measurements”
