Classification performance of TreeSAPP, GraftM and DIAMOND as evaluated by the MCC. TreeSAPP was run both with (TreeSAPP-BMGE) and without MSA trimming using BMGE. TreeSAPP-BMGE-Raw represents the classification performance of TreeSAPP with BMGE but without the linear-model-based rank recommendation. Distance from optimal rank is the accepted taxonomic distance in order for a classified sequence to be considered a true positive. Sequences that failed to meet the distance from optimal rank were included in the MCC calculation as false positives
