Hi, sorry for the late reply.
I have fixed the first problem. You can try the newest version of StrainScan on Github.
We are still working on the second suggestion and will upload a new version to support the compressed reads.
BTW, when strains are highly similar (only several SNPs), you may need to consider optimizing the parameter (e.g "-s") to achieve ideal performance.
Thank you!
Hi,
Thank you for your work on this tool, it looks very interesting. I have been trying it out and noticed a few problems:
It looks like you could just check if the input data has a ".gz" extension, then zcat the data into jellyfish to get the kmer counts. If that is too bothersome, an CLI option to provide the kmer counts would also work perfectly.
Thanks for any feedback you might have!
