Data from: Use of long-read sequencing simulators to assess real-world applications for food safety

    The goal of this project was to use NanoSim-H software to simulate Oxford Nanopore sequencing reads to assess the feasibility of sequencing-based foodborne pathogen detection and guide experimental design. Sequencing reads were simulated for STEC, *L. monocytogenes*, and a 1:1 combination of STEC and *Bos taurus* genomes using NanoSim-H. This dataset includes all of the simulated reads generated by the project in fasta format.
