Project description:Metagenome sequencing All specimens were collected and immediately stored in a -80 freezer. All BALF samples were subjected to MS. DNA was extracted from BALF using the TIANamp Micro DNA kit (DP316, Tiangen Biotech). DNA libraries were constructed with the end-repair method and then sequenced on the BGI Sequencer platform (BGI Genomics, Shenzhen, China). Bioinformatic pipeline analysis Low-quality and short (<35 bp) reads were removed from raw data using fastp [10]. Remaining reads were mapped to the human reference genome (hg19) using the Burrows-Wheeler method to remove sequences of human origin. Filtered reads were classified with RefSeq, downloaded from NCBI (ftp://ftp.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/genomes/).
