Abstract

Metagenome-Assembled Genomes (MAGs) or Single-cell Amplified Genomes (SAGs) are often incomplete, with sequences missing due to errors in assembly or low coverage. This presents a particular challenge for the identification of true gene frequencies within a microbial population, as core genes missing in only a few assemblies will be mischaracterized by current pangenome approaches. Here, we present CELEBRIMBOR, a Snakemake pangenome analysis pipeline which uses a measure of genome completeness to automatically adjust the frequency threshold at which core genes are identified, enabling accurate core gene identification in MAGs and SAGs. CELEBRIMBOR is published under open source Apache 2.0 licence at https://github.com/bacpop/CELEBRIMBOR and is available as a Docker container from this repository. Supplementary material is available in the online version of the article.
