Performance of FW in silico versus FW in vitro. Sensitivity (a) and precision (b) of methods on the FW dataset comparing the performance on the in silico community versus the in vitro community under species clade exclusion. The results are similar between the in vitro and in silico communities, demonstrating that methods appear to be relatively robust to real Illumina sequencing errors for this simple community. Performance is calculated based on proportion of reads appropriately assigned and averaged per genome (see Methods)
