<h4>Background</h4>Our understanding of polyploid genomes is limited by our inability to definitively assign sequences to a specific subgenome without extensive prior knowledge like high resolution genetic maps or genome sequences of diploid progenitors. In theory, existing methods for assigning sequences to individual species from metagenome samples could be used to separate subgenomes in polyploid organisms, however, these methods rely on differences in coarse genome properties like GC content ...[more]
