Using Metagenomes to Discover Novel Microbial Lineages in KBase Webinar - 17 June 2020
KBase provides users with a robust suite of tools to interrogate environmental genome sequence data. This webinar will highlight the application of bioinformatic tools for metagenome assembly and genome binning with an emphasis on the recovery of novel microbial lineages from the deep subseafloor environment. In particular, we will highlight the effective use of employing multiple genome binners and a bin optimization approach. We’ll also show some newly released KBase apps for this approach like our CONCOCT binner and DAS-Tool bin optimizer.
Presented by Sean Jungbluth of Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory on 17 June 2020.
