Metagenomics

Comparison of species composition fro, shotgun metagnomic data

• Read classification (kraken-like): needs normalization by genome length to derive relative abundance

Tools

mOTUs2 [1]

• Phylogenetic profiling based on universal markers
• Allow to classify genomes for which reference genomes are not available

• relative abundance
