-CheckM provides a set of tools for assessing the quality of genomes
-recovered from isolates, single cells, or metagenomes.
-It provides robust estimates of genome completeness and contamination
-by using collocated sets of genes that are ubiquitous and single-copy
-within a phylogenetic lineage.
-Assessment of genome quality can also be examined using plots depicting
-key genomic characteristics (e.g., GC, coding density) which highlight
-sequences outside the expected distributions of a typical genome.
-CheckM also provides tools for identifying genome bins that are likely
-candidates for merging based on marker set compatibility, similarity in
-genomic characteristics, and proximity within a reference genome tree.
