Simulation-based approaches to characterize metagenome coverage as a function of sequencing effort and microbial community structure

2018-06-27

Abstract excerpt

We applied simulation-based approaches to characterize how microbial community structure influences the amount of sequencing effort to reconstruct metagenomes that are assembled from short read sequences. An initial analysis evaluated the quantity, completion, and contamination of complete-metagenome-assembled genome (complete-MAG) equivalents, a bioinformatic-pipeline normalized metric for MAG quantity, as a func...
