CompareM2 is a genomes-to-report pipeline for comparing microbial genomes

Abstract

AbstractHere, we present CompareM2, a genomes-to-report pipeline for comparative analysis of bacterial and archaeal genomes derived from isolates and metagenomic assemblies. CompareM2 is easy to install and operate, and integrates community-adopted tools to perform genome quality control and annotation, taxonomic and functional predictions, as well as comparative analyses of core- and pan-genome partitions and phylogenetic relations. The central results generated via the CompareM2 workflow are emphasized in a portable dynamic report document. CompareM2 is free software and welcomes modifications and pull requests from the community on its Git repository athttps://github.com/cmkobel/comparem2.
