The underestimation is likely due to misassemblies of unrelated sequences into larger contigs, which therefore inflates the reads per bins.
Gilligan inflates their significance by reading profound meanings into them".
Inflated numbers, record numbers.
"A tariff or quota will immediately disadvantage these domestic businesses since foreign competitors would have the advantage of not paying an artificially inflated raw cost," the letter read.
As a high sequencing error rate as well as erroneous mapping of reads could have inflated the variability estimate, we very carefully evaluated the sequencing error rate and mapping accuracy.
Sequences that were overabundantly represented in the raw reads which would have inflated coverage estimates were removed.
We verified that the size of the 4-fold larger families of spruce sequences was not inflated due to incomplete assembly of 3' and 5' reads.
Additionally, having your tires inflated properly is important for getting accurate reads on the measurements you'll be taking later.
Paralogous sequences, for instance, can be virtually identical, thus artificially inflating the number of reads observed for such bins.
Aberrant alignments of homologous reads may inflate the number of false-positive detections (Pool et al. 2010).
