Abstract. Metagenomics is the study of microbial communities sampled directly from their natural environment, without prior culturing. Among the computational tools recently develo...
A major hindrance to studies of microbial diversity has been that the vast majority of microbes cannot be cultured in the laboratory and thus are not amenable to traditional method...
Background: Computational analysis of metagenomes requires the taxonomical assignment of the genome contigs assembled from DNA reads of environmental samples. Because of the diver...
