Abstract. With Next Generation Sequencers, sequence based transcriptomic or epigenomic assays yield millions of short sequence reads that need to be mapped back on a reference geno...

A major hindrance to studies of microbial diversity has been that the vast majority of microbes cannot be cultured in the laboratory and thus are not amenable to traditional method...
Background: The most common application for the next-generation sequencing technologies is resequencing, where short reads from the genome of an individual are aligned to a refere...
