### metaSPAdes
6666
[**SPAdes**](http://cab.spbu.ru/software/spades/) is a short-read assembler based on the de Bruijn graph approach. [**metaSPAdes**](https://genome.cshlp.org/content/27/5/824) is the dedicated metagenomic assembler of SPAdes. Use metaSPAdes (SPAdes in metagenomics mode) software to assemble short reads into contigs. A sample command is given below.

**Note:** You can specify the delimiter for the initial binning result file and the final output file using the `delimiter` paramter. Enter the following values for different delimiters; `,` for a comma, `;` for a semicolon, `$'\t'` for a tab, `" "` for a space and `|` for a pipe.

**Note:** The abundance file (e.g., `abundance.abund`) is a tab separated file with contig ID and the coverage for each contig in the assembly. metaSPAdes provides the coverage of each contig in the contig identifier of the final assembly. We can directly extract these values to create the abundance.abund file. However, no such information is provided for contigs produced by SGA. Hence, reads should be mapped back to the assembled contigs in order to determine the coverage of SGA contigs.

**Note:** Make sure that the initial binning result consists of contigs belonging to only one bin. GraphBin2 is designed to handle initial contigs which belong to only one bin.

**Note:** The binning output file should have comma separated values ```(contig_identifier, bin_number)``` for each contig. The contents of the binning output file should look similar to the example given below. Contigs are named according to their original identifier and the numbering of bins starts from 1.
