16S metabarcoding and RNA-seq data co-analysis

Question

[roger.huerlimann]

Hi all,

I have paired RNA-seq and bacterial 16S metabarcoding data from a developmental time series of an animal. I'd like to co-analyse the two data sets. Trying to find out which genes are positively or negatively correlated with which bacteria. Does anyone have an idea how to best approach this?

Cheers, Roger
