  Current metagenome assemblers developed for short sequence reads or noisy
long readswere not optimized for accurate long reads. Here we describe
hifiasm-meta, a new metagenome assembler that exploits the high accuracy of
recent data. Evaluated on seven empirical datasets, hifiasm-meta reconstructed
tens to hundreds of complete circular bacterial genomes per dataset,
consistently outperforming other metagenome assemblers.
