Long read and short read whole genome sequencing are equivalent for genomic characterisation of bacteriophage: considerations for high throughput analysis
Background Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) is a global health crisis, necessitating alternative antibacterial strategies. Bacteriophages (phages) offer a promising solution, and their use as a therapeutic agent relies on stringent bioinformatic characterisation using whole genome sequencing (WGS) technologies. However,...
