Scaffold statistics for Acinetobacter baumannii strain mixtures. a NG50 statistics when MEGAHIT contig assembly was used as an input for scaffolding methods. b NG50 statistics when metaSPAdes contig assembly was used as in input for scaffolding methods. metaSPAdes(S) denotes the scaffolds generated by inbuilt scaffolding module of metaSPAdes. The percentage of reads aligned concordantly when c MEGAHIT assembly was used as an input and when d metaSPAdes assembly was used as an input. e Number of bubbles detected by MetaCarvel for different input assemblies. f The count of different types of variants in Acinetobacter strain mixtures. Complex bubbles denote all the bubbles containing five or more nodes
