simulated metagenomic data of 14 strains

A simulated metagenomic data contains 7 samples, each has 14 genomes varied in degree of ANI (average nucleotide identity for homologous sequence) and in abundance. 5 out of the 14 genomes belong to the same species with above 99% ANI, other 2 belong to the same species with more than 95% ANI with these 5 genomes, and another 7 from different species with ANI lower than 90%. The abundance of each genome was designed to be high and low with the abundance change across samples to be constant, increase and decrease. Each sample has 10 million of 2x150bp paired end reads simulated by the tool InSilicoSeq with modeling a NovaSeq instrument.
