Synthetic samples for the benchmarking of wastewater SARS-CoV-2 variant detection pipelines.
The 'samples/' folder contains 100 forward and reverse simulated illumina reads of a combination of BA.1, BA.2, Delta, Recombinant, Synthetic non-lineage at varying frequencies.
The answer key for 1) read length 2) relative abundance (ratio) 3) coverage (lowcov: 50x hicov: 1000x) 4) sample #
Dataset was built with the goal of assessing the ability of tools to:
- Delineate lineages and sublineages
- Delineate frequencies in mixed samples
- Detect lineages at low frequency 1%
- Genomes with amplicon drop-out
- Novel variants
- Recombinants
- Low coverage & short read sequencing
