Figure 5From: Short clones or long clones? A simulation study on the use of paired reads in metagenomicsAssignment of Illumina reads to taxa. For seven key species, we indicate the number of simulated reads (red), along with the number of simulated Illumina single reads (blue), short-clone reads (green) and long-clone reads (yellow), assigned to the species by the LCA-gene content algorithm, for each of the three synthetic metagenome datasets LC (a), MC (b) and HC (c). (All values normalized to 100,000).Back to article page
