Development of a quantitative metagenomic approach to establish quantitative limits and its application to viruses
2022-07-10
Abstract excerpt
<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> Quantitative metagenomic methods are maturing but continue to lack clearly-defined analytical limits. Here, we developed a computational tool, QuantMeta, to determine the absolute abundance of targets in metagenomes spiked with synthetic DNA standards. The tool establishes (1) entropy-based detection thresholds to confidently determine the presence of targets, and (2) an approach to identify and...
