kma¶

Description¶

KMA is a mapping method designed to map raw reads directly against redundant databases, in an ultra-fast manner using seed and extend. KMA is particulary good at aligning high quality reads against highly redundant databases, where unique matches often does not exist.

Environment Modules¶

Run module spider kma to find out what environment modules are available for this application.

Environment Variables¶

HPC_KMA_BIN - executable directory
