Combined application of single cell genomics and meteagnomics is identified to be beneficial in improving genome assemblies of uncultivable bacteria [1]. Most of the metagenomic binning methods are hindered by the low abundance of species and have low performances in discriminating sequences of multiple strains [2]. Single cell genomics may aid in overcoming mentioned limitations. Recent trends in metagenomic sequence ...
