How "meta-short-reads-assemblers"(ex.megahit) works in mixed population sample?
Hello, I am just a novice in bioinformatics.
Few days ago I just follow this "https://github.com/voutcn/megahit/wiki/An-example-of-real-assembly" page and I got assembled contigs.
But, in this process I couldn't understand that, How megahit assemble mixed-population-sample's short reads without reference genome data.
I think assemble mixed-population-sample without reference genome cause many mis-assemble.
How megahit(or other meta-assembler) avoid this kind of problem?
