In this study, we used a comprehensive, custom-built, terabyte-scale #Kraken2 database (also publicly available) to taxonomically classify all reads before mapping to selected references.

Precise and scalable metagenomic profiling with sample-tailored minimizer libraries Abstract. Reference-based metagenomic profiling requires large genome libraries to maximize detection and minimize false positives. However, as libraries g

The Naïve Bayes classifier++ for metagenomic taxonomic classification—query evaluation AbstractMotivation. This study examines the query performance of the NBC++ (Incremental Naive Bayes Classifier) program for variations in canonicality, k-m

Excited to share our publication showing how NBC++ works on a really diverse database. A really cool thing we show is how #NBC++ / #Kraken2 's performance changes as the database depth changes (in the supplement). #metagenomics #microbiome academic.oup.com/bioinformati...

Microbiome analysis is evolving rapidly! Tools like #QIIME2, #DADA2, and #Kraken2 have transformed how we analyze microbial communities. Which one do you prefer? Anything new?
