Figure 1: Overview of the assembly process. A total of 1572 fecal samples were collected and sequenced at various timepoints during the first 3 years of 379 individuals lives. These were assembled with MEGAHIT into 68,181,571 contigs. Across all samples, a total of 62,257,853 genes, 1,000,000 of which were unique, were then annotated using Prokka. Only contigs that were over 1000 bases long wer...
