Violin plots showing the read length distributions for the four mock community datasets included in this study, after length-filtering was applied to remove shorter reads (see "Methods" Section). Interiors of plots contain white dots representing median values, black bars represent interquartile values, and black lines represent minimum and maximum range values. Read sizes range up to 50,000 bp in length, but the plot is clipped at 25,000 bp to show the core size distributions
