After completing the [taxonomic comparisons of 201002558-2729-Q7 and 6129-403-26-Q7 on 20201002](https://robertslab.github.io/sams-notebook/posts/2020/2020-10-02-Comparison---C.bairdi-20102558-2729-vs.-6129-403-26-NanoPore-Taxonomic-Assignments-Using-MEGAN6/), I decided to extract reads assigned to the following taxa for further exploration (primarily to identify contigs/scaffolds in our [cbai_genome_v1.0.fasta](https://owl.fish.washington.edu/halfshell/genomic-databank/cbai_genome_v1.0.fasta) (19MB).

Used MEGAN6 to extract reads from the MEGAN6 RMA6 files from [201002558-2729-Q7 taxonomic assignments on 20200928](https://robertslab.github.io/sams-notebook/posts/2020/2020-09-28-Taxonomic-Assignments---C.bairdi-20102558-2729-Q7-NanoPore-Reads-Using-DIAMOND-BLASTx-on-Mox-and-MEGAN6-daa2rma-on-emu//robertslab.github.io/sams-notebook/2020/09/28/Taxonomic-Assignments-C.bairdi-6129-403-26-Q7-NanoPore-Reads-Using-DIAMOND-BLASTx-on-Mox-and-MEGAN6-daa2rma-on-emu/).

  Here are stats on the extracted FastAs, generated with the [BBTools](https://jgi.doe.gov/data-and-tools/bbtools/bb-tools-user-guide/) `stats.sh` script, using the `format=5` output format.

  NOTE: The L50 and N50 values are swapped in the original output! I have manually changed the column labels to redue confusion. This seems to be a long-standing "bug" in this program, and exists in all output format options.

Now, I'll try aligning these reads to the cbai_genome_v1.0 using BLAST to see if I can identify which contigs/scaffolds belong to each of these taxa.
