Binder

Summary

  • Designed to visualize various quality metrics for MAGs and draft genomes
  • The immediate input for MAGstats are a newick tree file and a metadatafile
    • A newick tree file can be generated using GToTree
    • A metadata file can be generated using the qa option in CheckM
      • MAGstats only requires five columns from the CheckM output with the names MAG_ID Length Completion Redundancy GC_Content
      • Column names must exactly match these five in a tab-delimited format
      • Necessary columns can be selected in Excel and exported as a TSV
  • The output displays the phylogenetic tree of MAGs and genomes with corresponding quality information. MAGstats can be used to explore the quality of a set of MAGs and/or genomes for downstream analysis
