SCAPP: An algorithm for improved plasmid assembly in metagenomes
2020-01-14
Abstract excerpt
<h4>Background: </h4> Metagenomic sequencing has led to the identification and assembly of many new bacterial genome sequences. These bacteria often contain plasmids: usually small, circular double-stranded DNA molecules that may transfer across bacterial species and confer antibiotic resistance. These plasmids are generally less studied and understood than their bacterial hosts. Part of the reason for this is ins...
