**Mothur Overview**

Mothur_, initiated by Dr. Patrick Schloss and his software development team
in the Department of Microbiology and Immunology at The University of Michigan,
provides bioinformatics for the microbial ecology community.

**Command Documenation**

The rarefaction.shared_ command generates inter-sample rarefaction curves using a re-sampling without replacement approach. The traditional way that ecologists use rarefaction is not to randomize the sampling order within a sample, rather between samples. For instance, if we wanted to know the number of OTUs in the human colon, we might sample from various sites within the colon, and sequence a bunch of 16S rRNA genes. By determining the number of OTUs in each sample and comparing the composition of those samples it is possible to determine how well you have sampled the biodiversity within the individual.
