Parallel-META 3.5.1 Released
Parallel-META is a comprehensive and full-automatic computational toolkit for rapid data mining among metagenomic datasets. Both metagenomic shotgun sequences and 16S/18S/ITS rRNA amplicon sequences are accepted. Based on parallel algorithms and optimizations, Parallel-META 3 can achieve a very high speed compare to traditional microbiome analysis pipelines. Now the Parallel-META 3 version 3.5.1 is available at http://bioinfo.single-cell.cn/parallel-meta.html.
The following functions have been updated in the new version of Parallel-META 3.
a. Added the Silva_16S reference database;
b. Added functional prediction based on Silva_16S database;
c. Database of reference genomes used for prediction has been expanded by >10X.
