-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.
