Old datasets
MEGAN 1 datasets associated with the original 2007 MEGAN paper.
Old datasets
Here are links to data sets used in our paper "MEGAN Analysis of Metagenome Data" which appeared in Genome Research. Please note that these datasets are for use with MEGAN1.0. We will soon replace them with new files compatible with MEGAN 3.
