Synthetic metagenome

Synthetic metagenome generated with randomreads.sh from the BBMap package (v38.79). Five bacterial genome assemblies were downloaded from NCBI: <strong>name;genome_id;taxid</strong><br> Thermoplasmatales archaeon I-plasma;GCA_009387875;667138<br> Patulibacter medicamentivorans;GCF_000240225;1097667<br> Lachnospiraceae bacterium 2_1_46FAA;GCA_000209385;742723<br> Enterobacteriaceae bacterium LSJC7;GCA_000302695;1224136<br> Burkholderia mallei 2002721280;GCF_000011705;370895 200,000 paired reads were generated from each genome by running: <pre><code class="language-bash">randomreads.sh ref=&lt;genome&gt;.fna out1=&lt;genome&gt;_1.fq out2=&lt;genome&gt;_2.fq reads=200000 paired=t illuminanames=t prefix=&lt;taxid&gt; </code></pre> The two paired fastq files were concatenated and gzipped separately.
