Figure 4: Abundance ubiquity plot of phage genomes in public metagenomes.

From: A highly abundant bacteriophage discovered in the unknown sequences of human faecal metagenomes

Figure 4

Reads from 2,944 publicly available shotgun metagenomes49 were aligned to a database of 1,193 phage genomes (see Methods). The average depth of aligned reads per nucleotide of the phage genome (abundance) is plotted against the number of metagenomes it is found in (ubiquity). See Supplementary Data 5 for details.
