I am trying to compare kmer content between two different genomes with this commands:
kat comp -n -t 10 -o comparison 'library1?.fastq' 'library2?.fastq'
kat plot spectra-mx -i -o comparison.png comparison-main.mx
I got a density plot with four lines (exclusive dataset1, exclusive dataset2, shared dataset1, shared dataset2). The label for X-axis is "k-mer multiplicity", but I found in the KAT manual a simiar plot with "kmer frequency" instead. This latter was generated with: kat_distanalysis.py --plot spectra-cn.mx.
I would like to know if in this context "k-mer multiplicity" are the same or different parameters.
