Computational Methods for Strain-Level Microbial Detection in Colony and Metagenome Sequencing Data

Metagenomic sequencing is a powerful tool for examining the diversity and complexity of microbial communities. Most widely used tools for taxonomic profiling of metagenomic sequence data allow for a species-level overview of the composition. However, individual strains within a species can differ gr...
