Welcome.

SingleM is a tool for profiling shotgun metagenomes. It has a particular strength in detecting microbial lineages which are not in reference databases. The method it uses also makes it suitable for some related tasks, such as assessing eukaryotic contamination, finding bias in genome recovery, and lineage-targeted MAG recovery.

Documentation can be found at https://wwood.github.io/singlem/

Community profiles for many publicly available metagenomes can be found at the Sandpiper website.
