Comparative performance of reference-based metagenomic tools to identify species-level taxa among families of bacteria: benchmarking <i>Mycobacteriaceae</i> and <i>Neisseriaceae</i>
2025-06-27
Abstract excerpt
Hypotheses concerning the ecology and evolution of bacteria commonly relate to the presence and abundance of species in various settings and conditions. Shotgun metagenomics may address these hypotheses, which previously relied on PCR or culture. However, the problem of determining the presence/absence of a given species of interest is not trivial, particularly when closely related species are present in the refer...
