Mock Metagenomic Dataset, merged reads, full set

40 M paired end reads were constructed from 25 reference microbial genomes (including associated plasmids). The reads were either left as paired ends or merged to form longer, continuous reads. The full datasets (either paired or merged) were digitally normalized. They are provided for the purpose of benchmarking assemblers, testing annotation procedures, etc. See table for details on full dataset.

本数据集从25个参考微生物基因组（含关联质粒）中构建得到40兆条双端测序读段（paired-end reads）。这些读段既可保留原始双端形式，也可被拼接为更长的连续读段。完整数据集（包含双端型与拼接型两类）均经过数字化归一化处理。本数据集旨在用于基因组组装器（assemblers）基准测试、注释流程验证等科研场景，完整数据集的详细信息请参见附表。
