Evaluation of taxonomic classification and profiling methods for long-read shotgun metagenomic sequencing datasets

Abstract Background Long-read shotgun metagenomic sequencing is gaining in popularity and offers many advantages over short-read sequencing. The higher information content in long reads is useful for a variety of metagenomics analyses, including taxonomic classification and profiling. The developmen...
