Testing the limits of short-reads metagenomic classifications programs in wastewater treating microbial communities by Leandro Di Gloria, Lorenzo Casbarra, Tommaso Lotti, Matteo Ramazzotti

“…Gaining a deeper understanding of the microbial communities underpinning these technologies would enable their optimization, ultimately reducing costs and increasing efficiency. To support this research, we quantitatively compared classification methods differing in read length (raw reads, contigs and MAGs), overall search approach (Kaiju, Kraken2, RiboFrame and kMetaShot), as well as source databases to assess the classification performances at both the genus and species levels using an in silico-generated mock community designed to provide a simplified yet comprehensive representation of the complex microbial ecosystems found in AS and AGS. …”
