New #metagenome assembly comparison of PacBio, ONT, and Illumina in human gut #microbiomes.

- "HiFi generated more cMAGs than ONT at every depth with either assembly method"
- "HiFi cMAGs had significantly higher completeness and lower contamination than ONT"

Do you (like me) create a bunch of conda environments, then later forget what they're for, when they were last updated, or which tools are in them?

If so, you might this little project: github.com/rrwick/conda...
