Comparison of CRISPR identification using whole-metagenome assembly and targeted assembly.

athe total number of samples that have streptococcal CRISPRs identified if using targeted assembly, andbif using whole-metagenome assembly;cthe total number of spacers found in the longest CRISPR locus found in the given dataset;dthe total number of spacers found in all contigs assembled from the given dataset;ethe total number of sequences that contain the repeats of a given CRISPR, i.e., the recruited reads used for targeted assembly. See Table S1 for comparison of all the CRISPRs studied in this paper.
