Hello I just installed and ran Maxbin2, I have 48 files that correspond to 24 samples (paired end reads) , First I concatenated my paired end reads so I ended up with 24 files, I listed this 24 files on a new file which have the paths to each one of the 24 files and added them as input on the -reads_list flag
when Maxbin2 finished, I ended up with more than 300 bins, I compared the number of sequences of each bin with other bins produced from different binning programs and it seems they have pretty similar numbers.
Just want to be sure if adding the reads as input in the way that I mentioned is the correct one so I can trust on my 300 bins produced.
Hey Did you get an answer to this? cuz I am also facing the same problem. I do not have the Abundance.txt file so provided my reads in fastq.gz format but I guess it's not accepting that. Please help if you found any solution. Thanks Saraswati
