The mOTUs online database provides web-accessible genomic context to taxonomic profiling of microbial communities

Determining the taxonomic composition (taxonomic profiling) is a fundamental task in studying environmental and host-associated microbial communities. However, genome-resolved microbial diversity on Earth remains undersampled, and accessing the genomic context of taxa detected during taxonomic profiling remains a challenging task. Here, we present the mOTUs online database (mOTUs-db), which is consistent with and interfaces with the mOTUs taxonomic profiling tool. It comprises 2.83 million...
