CoMet: a workflow using contig coverage and composition for binning a metagenomic sample with high precision

Abstract Background In metagenomics, the separation of nucleotide sequences belonging to an individual or closely matched populations is termed binning. Binning helps the evaluation of underlying microbial population structure as well as the recovery of individual genomes from a sample of uncultivab...
