Plasmer: an Accurate and Sensitive Bacterial Plasmid Prediction Tool Based on Machine Learning of Shared k-mers and Genomic Features

Plasmer: an Accurate and Sensitive Bacterial Plasmid Prediction Tool Based on Machine Learning of Shared k-mers and Genomic Features

ABSTRACT Identification of plasmids in bacterial genomes is critical for many factors, including horizontal gene transfer, antibiotic resistance genes, host-microbe interactions, cloning vectors, and industrial production. There are several in silico methods to predict plasmid sequences in assembled...
