MetaCluster-3.0 Sample Datasets:

Dataset 1 (download the .rar package)

This dataset contains 4000 DNA fragments from two microorganisms which are belong to the same order but different families. The first 2000 DNA fragments of this dataset are from "Acinetobacter_baumannii_SDF" and the last 2000 DNA fragments are from "Pseudomonas_entomophila_L48". The length of each DNA fragment is 1000bp.

Dataset 2 (download the .rar package)

This dataset contains 6000 DNA fragments from three microorganisms which are belong to the same family but different genus. The first 2000 DNA fragments of this dataset are from "Ehrlichia_ruminantium_Gardel", the middle 2000 DNA fragments are from "Anaplasma_centrale_Israel" and the last 2000 DNA fragments are from "Neorickettsia_sennetsu_Miyayama". The length of each DNA fragment is 1000bp.
