MetaPalette: a <italic toggle="yes">k</italic>-mer Painting Approach for Metagenomic Taxonomic Profiling and Quantification of Novel Strain Variation

ABSTRACT Metagenomic profiling is challenging in part because of the highly uneven sampling of the tree of life by genome sequencing projects and the limitations imposed by performing phylogenetic inference at fixed taxonomic ranks. We present the algorithm MetaPalette, which uses long k-mer sizes (...
