We report a droplet microfluidic method to target and sort individual cells directly from complex microbiome samples and to prepare these cells for bulk whole-genome sequencing without cultivation. We characterize this approach by recovering bacteria spiked into human stool samples at a ratio as low as 1:250 and by successfully enriching endogenous <i>Bacteroides vulgatus</i> to the level required for de novo assembly of high-quality genomes. Although microbiome strains are increasingly demanded ...[more]
