Binning taxonomic assesment

This picture shows the distribution of bins to

• correct bins: Bins that have been assigned to the correct taxonomic group (e.g., a bin contains 100% proteobacterial sequences and has been assigned to proteobacteria).
   
• under-binned bins: Bins that have been assigned to higher taxonomic groups (e.g., a bin contains 100% E.coli sequences but it has been assigned to proteobacteria instead of Escherichia).
   
• over-binned bins: Bins that have been assigned to lower taxonomic groups (e.g., a bin contains 100% proteobacterial sequences but has been assigned to Alphaproteobacteria).
   
• wrong bins: Bins for which the assignment is wrong (e.g., a bin contains proteobacterial sequences and has been assigned to Cyanobacteria).
