Illumina Sequencing Artifacts Revealed by Connectivity Analysis of Metagenomic Datasets

Adina Chuang Howe, Jason Pell, Rosangela Canino-Koning +5

Sequencing errors and biases in metagenomic datasets affect coverage-based assemblies and are often ignored during analysis. Here, we analyze read connectivity in metagenomes and i…
