OTU matrix biclustering

Question

[bulldogshepherd]

Hi all,

I have an OTU matrix (row: genus, column: sample) of 16S rRNA data, is it common to bicluster the matrix using two different distances (dissimilarities)? At first I used Bray-Curtis dissimilarity on both genus and sample, but using (1 - spearman CC) on genus gives more reasonable results.

Thank you!

What's the question ?
