Additional file 5: of Choice of assembly software has a critical impact on virome characterisation

Table S1. Spearman correlation values from the relationships of indel, mismatch and misassembly counts, recovered genome fraction, abundance and total proportion of genomic repeats within the simulated virome. *GF–recovered genome fraction. Table S2. Linear modelling correlation values comparing recovered genome fraction, total proportion of genomic repeats and abundance for the Simulated virome. Table S3. Spearman correlation values from the relationships of inverted, tandem, palindromic and total repeats, abundance and the number of contigs generated by each assembler for the Simulated virome. Table S4. (A) Ranking table comparing recovered genome fraction and contig numbers for assemblers which recovered at least 50% of the total genome fraction. (B) Ranking table of indel, mismatch and misassembly counts per 100 kb, normalised to the number of genomes recovered to at least 50%. Table S5. Number of aligned and unaligned contigs generated by each assembler for mock community A. Table S6. Number of aligned and unaligned contigs generated by each assembler for mock community B.
