Add MetaPhlAn3 as further metagenomic alternative #487

Open jfy133 opened 4 years ago

jfy133 commented 4 years ago

The MetaPhlAn series of taxonomic classifiers are very popular in metagenomics, and have very low overhead. It also allows exporting of physical alignments to the gene databases that theoretically (but see https://github.com/Integrative-Transcriptomics/DamageProfiler/issues/39) )could be sent to DamageProfiler for aDNA authentication criteria screening.
