Benchmarking viromics: an in silico evaluation of metagenome-enabled estimates of viral community composition and diversity

Background Viral metagenomics (viromics) is increasingly used to obtain uncultivated viral genomes, evaluate community diversity, and assess ecological hypotheses. While viromic experimental methods are relatively mature and widely accepted by the research community, robust bioinformatics standards...
