Development of strain-level shotgun metagenomics approaches to detect and characterize microbiological contaminants in the context of food safety
two different STEC strains, and we could cluster separately the reads corresponding to each strain and perform relatedness (phylogeny), however not all genes harbored in the isolate’s genome could be ...
