Significant differences between gtdbtk de_novo_wf (GTDB-Tk v2.3.2) and gtdbtk classify_wf (GTDB-Tk v2.1.0)

[473021677]

Hi,
I have used the “gtdbtk de_novo_wf“ command (GTDB-Tk v2.3.2) to produce the GTDB-tk result files for 160 MAGs. 6 and 22 of the 160 MAGs could be assigned g__32-111 and g__Caldipriscus, respectively, and the other 132 MAGs could not be assigned to a genus. Previously, taxonomic assignment of these 160 MAGs has been performed using GTDB-Tk v2.1.0 (gtdbtk classify_wf) based on the GTDB r207 database, and 100 of these the 160 MAGs could be assigned to 16 genera including the genus g__32-111 and g__Caldipriscus. I am not sure whether I could ignore the significant differences between gtdbtk de_novo_wf (GTDB-Tk v2.3.2, the GTDB r214.0 database) and gtdbtk classify_wf (GTDB-Tk v2.1.0, the GTDB r207 database). The significant differences should not be due to difference GTDB-Tk versions or difference GTDB databases. I need your help. I have appended the resulting files. Thanks.

Best regards,

Yang Yuan
