Long-read metagenomic exploration of extrachromosomal mobile genetic elements in the human gut
Abstract Background Elucidating the ecological and biological identity of extrachromosomal mobile genetic elements (eMGEs), such as plasmids and bacteriophages, in the human gut remains challenging due to their high complexity and diversity. Results Here, we show efficient identification of eMGEs as...
