Description

Short DNA reads can be aligned against large reference sequences for bioinformatics analysis. It helps researchers compare sequencing output with genomes or other long nucleotide templates.

This is a terminal tool for scientific pipelines. Users normally provide read files and a prepared reference index, then use the results in downstream genomics analysis.
