Metaxa2¶

Description¶

Metaxa2 is a software tool for automated detection and discrimination among ribosomal small subunit (12S/16S/18S) sequences of archaea, bacteria, eukaryotes, mitochondria, and chloroplasts in metagenomes and environmental sequencing datasets.

Environment Modules¶

Run module spider metaxa2 to find out what environment modules are available for this application.

Environment Variables¶
