It is nice to have this tutorial as a guideline. Still, some of its conclusions are fairly simplistic. For example, even though in your hands CONCOCT has identified 16 bins from 10 species, that didn't overestimate the number of species because 9 of those 16 bins have 0% completeness and 12 have <10% completeness.
Hi,
I'm doing a metagenomic analysis on anvio and want to do automatic binning. However, I have a single sample and most of the tools mentioned in the anvio tutorial are hybrid binning tools, adapted to several samples ( GROOPM, MAXBIN, METABAT, BINSANITY_REFINE, MYCC and CONCOCT).
Do you know of tools adapted to single samples?
Thank you for your help

Please check this out. Here I describe in details how to use CONCOT and Metabat
great point, but it is important to remember that it is a metagenomic dataset, so there is not enough coverage to recover the full genome, thus the complement is low for many of the bins.
I have added some extra words to the conclusion to make it more clear. thanks

Metabat can work with a single sample. It will only use the tetra-nucleotide distribution information though.
