Abstract

The growing body of metagenomic data offers the possibility for creating longer consensus assemblies for ecosystems of interest as a community resource. We tested this concept by performing a co-assembly of metagenome and metatranscriptome data from five independent studies of biological soil crust communities in the southwestern United States.
