Strain-resolved microbiome sequencing reveals mobile elements that drive bacterial competition on a clinical timescale

Abstract Background Populations of closely related microbial strains can be simultaneously present in bacterial communities such as the human gut microbiome. We recently developed a de novo genome assembly approach that uses read cloud sequencing to provide more complete microbial genome drafts, ena...
