Description

MaxBin is a software that is capable of clustering metagenomic contigs

Input

name:type

pattern

meta:map

Groovy Map containing sample information e.g. [ id:‘test’, single_end

]

contigs:file

Multi FASTA file containing assembled contigs of a given sample

*.fasta

reads:file

Reads used to assemble contigs in FASTA or FASTQ format. Do not supply at the same time as abundance files.

*.fasta

abund:list

One or more contig abundance files, i.e. average depth of reads against each contig. See MaxBin2 README for details. Do not supply at the same time as read files.
