An efficient strategy using k-mers to analyse 16S rRNA sequences
The use of k-mers has been a successful strategy for improving metagenomics studies, including taxonomic classifications, or de novo assemblies, and can be used to obtain sequences of interest from the available databases. The aim of this manuscript was to propose a simple but efficient strategy to...
