Sequence and cultivation study of Muribaculaceae reveals novel species, host preference, and functional potential of this yet undescribed family (2019, methodology): “Finally, the percentage of conserved proteins (POCP) analysis was done using the IMG software tool Genus definition [38, 49], considering genus delineation at POCP values of approximately 50%.”
The Genomes OnLine Database (GOLD) v.4: status of genomic and metagenomic projects and their associated metadata (2011, methodology): “For that purpose, the GOLD metadata are integrated into the Integrated Microbial Genomes (IMG) family of data management systems (11–13).”
Next generation sequencing and bioinformatic bottlenecks: the current state of metagenomic data analysis. (2012, methodology): “Online metagenome annotation services such as IMG-M [29] and MG-RAST [30], are also available.”
Metagenomics - a guide from sampling to data analysis (2012, methodology): “CAMERA ’ s RAMCAPP pipeline [74] uses FGA and MGA, while IMG/M employs a combination of tools, including FGS and MGA [58,59].”
Genome-Based Taxonomic Classification of the Phylum Actinobacteria (2018, methodology): “…(outgroup) type-strain genomes were downloaded mainly from GenBank and to a smaller degree from the IntegratedMicrobial Genomes platform (Markowitz et al., 2009), that originated from the Genomic Encyclopedia of Archaea and Bacteria pilot phase or phase 1 of the One Thousand Microbial…”
The Potential of Metagenomic Approaches for Understanding Soil Microbial Processes (2014, methodology): “The results of annotation tools, such as MG-RAST and IMG-ER (Markowitz et al., 2009; Meyer et al., 2008), are dependent on database matching parameters as well as the content and quality of the sequence databases.”
