MetaPhlAn 4 relies on ~5.1M unique clade-specific marker genes identified from ~1M microbial genomes (~236,600 references and 771,500 metagenomic assembled genomes) spanning 26,970 species-level genome bins (SGBs), 4,992 of them taxonomically unidentified at the species level.

What's new in version 4

  • Adoption of the species-level genome bins system (SGBs)
  • New MetaPhlAn marker genes extracted identified from ~1M microbial genomes
  • Ability to profile 21,978 known (kSGBs) and 4,992 unknown (uSGBs) microbial species
  • Better representation of, not only the human gut microbiome but also many other animal and ecological environments
  • Estimation of metagenome composed by microbes not included in the database with parameter --unclassified_estimation
  • Compatibility with MetaPhlAn 3 databases with parameter --mpa3
