Terabase-Scale Coassembly of a Tropical Soil Microbiome
Abstract
Petabases of reads are being produced by environmental metagenome sequencing. An essential step in analyzing these data is metagenome assembly, the computational reconstruction of genome sequences from microbial communities. “Coassembly” of metagenomic sequence data, in which multiple samples are assembled together, enables more complete detection of microbial genomes in an environment than “multiassembly,” in which samples are assembled individually.
