MGnify (http://www.ebi.ac.uk/metagenomics) provides a free to use platform for the assembly, analysis and archiving of microbiome data derived from sequencing microbial populations that are present in particular environments. Over the past 2 years, MGnify (formerly EBI Metagenomics) has more than doubled the number of publicly available analysed datasets held within the resource. Recently, an updated approach to data analysis has been unveiled (version 5.0), replacing the previous single pipeline ...

Shotgun Metagenomics Analysis
Analysis of metagenomic shotgun sequences including assembly, speciation, ARG discovery and more
Description
The input for this analysis is paired end next generation sequencing data from metagenomic samples. The workflow is designed to be modular, so that individual modules can be run depending on the nature of the metagenomics project at hand. More modules will be added as we develop them - this repo is a work in progress!
These scripts have been written ...
