TheiaCoV Genomic Characterization
The Kraken2 workflows are for assessing the taxonomic profile of raw sequencing data (FASTQ files).
Kraken2 is a bioinformatics tool originally designed for metagenomic applications. It has additionally proven valuable for validating taxonomic assignments and checking contamination of single-species (e.g. bacterial isolate, eukaryotic isolate, viral isolate, etc.) whole genome sequence data.
There are two Kraken2 workflows:
Kraken2_PE is compatible with Illumina paired-end dataKraken2_SE is compatible with Illumina single-end data and Oxford Nanopore dataBesides the data input types, there are minimal differences between these two workflows.
