    Novoalign speed tips for 25bp reads

    I'd like to use novoalign for alignments since I've found it to be very accurate, but it is very slow at short read lengths.

    Heng li stated elsewhere that Novo is 2-3X slower than BWA at 100bp reads, but ~10X slower for 40bp reads (http://seqanswers.com/forums/showpos...37&postcount=8)

    I'm aligning 25bp reads and novo is impractical using the default settings. Any tips for tweaking it to increase speed?

    Alternatively, what aligners people are using for outward facing reads, since BWA can only handle standard PE at this point?

    The part about this topic feels surprisingly grounded, and the details on the page is the bit that made me slow down. I’d keep <a href="https://kinpict.com/">ai family photo generator</a> bookmarked for later.

    16S/ITS Profiling vs. Shotgun Metagenomics: What Changes in Your Workflow?
    by SEQadmin2





    NGS has revolutionized clinical microbiology by offering new ways to identify and surveil pathogens without prior knowledge of the target. One popular approach is 16S rRNA and ITS amplicon sequencing, which targets specific microbial markers. But studies are increasingly incorporating shotgun metagenomics, a technique that sequences all DNA from a sample without targeting specific microbial markers. This approach allows more detailed taxonomic classification,...
