DOI: 10.1128/msphere.00857-24
Abstract: ABSTRACT Individual genes from microbiomes can drive host-level phenotypes. To help identify such candidate genes, several recent tools estimate microbial gene copy numbers directly from metagenomes. These tools rely on alignments to pangenomes, which, in… read more here.
