operational taxonomic unit  n. (OTU)

p. 397

One practical way of handlingn this problem has been to replace "species" with another term that can be used when only sequence data are available. By general agreement, scientists use de operational taxonomic unit or OTU.

We will discuss oral biofilms again in chapter 21, describing in more detail the interactions that allow the resident microbres to have a communal existence.


OTU  n. (operational taxonomic unit)

p. 397

One practical way of handlingn this problem has been to replace "species" with another term that can be used when only sequence data are available. By general agreement, scientists use de operational taxonomic unit or OTU.
