mOTUs

Description

motus website

Phylogenetic markers are genes that can be used to reconstruct the evolutionary history of organisms and to profile the taxonomic composition of environmental samples.

Environment Modules

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

Environment Variables

  • HPC_MOTUS_DIR - installation directory
  • HPC_MOTUS_BIN - executable directory
