The CCMetagen pipeline has a higher F1 score than other metagenomic classification methods for all taxonomic ranks. The two points for each program and taxonomic rank represent the results using a simulated metagenome and a metatranscriptome sample of a fungal community. a Results using the whole NCBI nt collection as a reference database. b Results using the RefSeq-bf (bacteria and fungi) database, containing all bacterial and fungal genomes available. c Partial RefSeq database containing only some of the fungal species currently present in the RefSeq-bf database, mimicking the effects of dealing with species without representatives in reference data sets. In this case, Kraken2, Centrifuge, and KrakenUniq have overlapping results. Refer to Additional file 1: Figures S1 and S2 and Additional file 2 for more information, including precision and recall
