Figure 6From: CLAST: CUDA implemented large-scale alignment search toolComparison of the search accuracy of different alignment tools. (A) Taxonomic assignment of the query sequences in the simulated metagenomic analysis test was performed in the following steps: 1: Query sequences were generated by randomly selecting short fragments from reference genome sequences. 2: Sequence similarities were calculated between the query and reference genome sequences. 3: If a query matched to the original reference sequence, it was deleted from the results. 4: The best non-self hits were selected for taxonomic assignment. (B) Whether the result of taxonomic assignment were correct or not were assessed based on the taxonomic databases.Back to article page
