Heat map of taxon coverage at the genus level for commonly used primer pairs. Each column represents a primer pair, and each row depicts a vaginotropic genus. The percentage of sequences in each genus covered by each primer is indicated through a color scale. Most previously published work uses 16S primers with good coverage, but a few genera remain a problem, such as Chlamydia and Sneathia.
