Metagenome-assembled genomes (MAGs) are genome reconstructions obtained directly from metagenomic sequencing data. Learn how MAGs are recovered through assembly and binning, how genome quality is assessed, and how MAGs are used in microbial genomics and genome-resolved metagenomics.
Metagenomic assembly reconstructs longer DNA sequences from microbial community sequencing reads. Learn about contigs, k-mers, de Bruijn graphs, short- and long-read assembly, assembly quality, co-assembly, polishing, and genome reconstruction.
Shotgun metagenomics sequences DNA from across microbial genomes to reveal community composition, genes, metabolic pathways, and functional potential. Explore its workflow, applications, advantages, and limitations.
