Fig. 3From: Subtractive assembly for comparative metagenomics, and its application to type 2 diabetes metagenomesComparison of the cumulative contig length between subtractive assembly (red) and direct metagenomic assembly (blue) of R. palustris HaA2 (simulation 2). The results assembled by IDBA-UD and MetaVelvet are shown in (a) and (b), respectively. On the x-axis, contigs are ordered from largest to smallest. The y-axis gives the size of the x largest contigs in the assemblyBack to article page
