Interpreting and de-noising genetically engineered barcodes in a DNA virus
Fig 7
Barcode length distributions for 90%, 99%, and 99.9% sequencing reads cutoffs.
Applying a cutoff for barcode abundance eliminates most recall of longer barcodes that were not intended in the original design for a 12-nucleotide barcode library. These barcodes are derived from the L3 clustering. The y-axis is square root-transformed so low values are more visible.
