Metagenomic samples are snapshots of complex ecosystems at work. These samples often involve hundreds of bacteria from known and unknown species, contain multiple strain variants, and vary greatly both within and across environments. Many microbes found in
Tandem mass spectral library searching is finding increased use as an effective means of determining chemical identity in mass spectrometry-based omics studies. We previously reported on constructing a tandem mass spectral library that includes spectra for
