Extended Data Fig. 6: Sensitivity evaluation of LongTrack and culture-based approach (Strainer).
From: Long-read metagenomics for strain tracking after faecal microbiota transplant
The sensitivity evaluation of LongTrack and the culture-based approach (Strainer) was performed using the union of all strains detected either through isolate genomes or MAGs as the reference set. To evaluate sensitivity across different microbial abundance levels, the reference set was stratified by relative abundance thresholds, which provides a comprehensive benchmark that encompasses the diversity of detectable strains, including those uniquely identified by each method. Numbers in brackets on the x-axis indicate the number of reference strains (n) in each bin.
