Description-en: tool for processing metagenomic sequences
Versatile 64-bit multithreaded tool for processing metagenomic sequences,
including searching, clustering, chimera detection, dereplication, sorting,
masking and shuffling
.
The aim of this project is to create an alternative to the USEARCH tool
developed by Robert C. Edgar (2010). The new tool should:
.
- have a 64-bit design that handles very large databases and much more
than 4GB of memory
- be as accurate or more accurate than usearch
- be as fast or faster than usearch
