Optimizing read mapping to reference genomes to determine composition and species prevalence in microbial communities.

Optimizing read mapping to reference genomes to determine composition and species prevalence in microbial communities.

The Human Microbiome Project (HMP) aims to characterize the microbial communities of 18 body sites from healthy individuals. To accomplish this, the HMP generated two types of shotgun data: reference shotgun sequences isolated from different anatomical sites on the human body and shotgun metagenomic...
