CRISPR assembly results using different assembly strategies. The strategies are frozen-WGS-targeted (“targeted” assembly of CRISPR using only metagenomic data sets from “frozen” samples); frozen-combined-targeted (targeted assembly using “combined” metagenomic and metatranscriptomic data sets from frozen samples); all-WGS-targeted (targeted assembly using only metagenomic data sets from all samples); all-combined-targeted (targeted assembly using combined metagenomic and metatranscriptomic data sets from all samples); and combined-soapdenovo (whole-metagenomic and metatranscriptomic assembly using data sets from all samples). Results from combined-soapdenovo were used in this study for downstream transcription analysis.
