Comprehensive human respiratory genome catalogue underlies the high resolution and precision of the respiratory microbiome

Abstract excerpt

The human respiratory microbiome plays a crucial role in respiratory health, but there is no comprehensive respiratory genome catalogue (RGC) for studying the microbiome. In this study, we collected whole-metagenome shotgun sequencing data from 4067 samples and sequenced long reads of 124 samples, yielding 9.08 and 0.42 Tbp of short- and long-read data, respectively. By submitting these data with a novel assembly...
