Method evidence record
Metagenomic Binning
Metagenomic binning partitions assembled contigs from complex microbial communities into distinct genome bins, each representing an individual organism or strain. Pioneered by Banfield and colleagues, this pipeline isolates single-organism genomes (metagenome-assembled genomes or MAGs) from environmental samples without requiring cultivated isolates.
