Metagenome Assembly

Metagenome Assembly is a computational process in which sequencing reads derived from a complex mixture of microbial genomes are reconstructed into contiguous fragments or complete genomes without prior isolation or cultivation of individual species, distinguishing it from single-genome assembly by addressing high genomic diversity, variable species abundance, and cross-species homology.
