QUESTION: KMCP merge #14

Closed alienzj closed 2 years ago

alienzj commented 2 years ago

Dear Dr Shen,

Thank you for developing so great tool ! I have a question, could you please help me to figure out it ? You mentioned in your paper that KMCP can automatically merge profiles generated by searching reads on multi small database, does it work at different types of databases ? For example, can it merge bacteria, archaea, fungi, virus and plasmid profile ?

Thanks!

Hi Jie, thanks for using KMCP.

It merges search results ( not profiles) from multiple databases. https://bioinf.shenwei.me/kmcp/usage/#merge

Check the workflow

does it work at different types of databases ? For example, can it merge bacteria, archaea, fungi, virus and plasmid

Yes, it does.
