Evaluation of a hybrid approach using UBLAST and BLASTX for metagenomic sequences annotation of specific functional genes.

The fast development of next generation sequencing (NGS) has dramatically increased the application of metagenomics in various aspects. Functional annotation is a major step in the metagenomics studies. Fast annotation of functional genes has been a challenge because of the deluge of NGS data and ex...
