Genome-resolved ecology and evolution of the microbiome enabled by quantitative long-read metagenomics
Standard metagenomics resolves microbial communities only in relative terms and at coarse taxonomic resolution, obscuring how individual strains change in absolute abundance and evolve within a host1–6. We present long-read quantiomics (LRQ), a quantitative metagenomics platform coupling long-read sequencing with plasm...
