Metagenomics, shotgun metagenomics in particular, is a field that has disproportionately benefited from advances in high-throughput sequencing technologies. This chapter discusses the choice of sample number, depth, and sequencing technology, the shearing, size-selection, and multiplexing options on Illumina platforms, and outlines the steps in the bioinformatic analysis and sharing of metagenomic data.
