In this study, I relate metagenomic relative abundance to absolute abundance via genome size and quantity of nucleic acid without requiring a spike-in standard. In this method, the relative abundance
#Overview These are reference packages for the TIPP3 software for abundance profiling and/or species detection from metagenomic reads (e.g., Illumina, PacBio, Nanopore, etc.). Different refpkg versio
The target of inference in microbiome analyses is usually relative abundance (RA) because RA in a sample (e.g., stool) can be considered as an approximation of RA in an entire ecosystem (e.g., gut). H
