GeneFior: A back to basics and transparent multi-tool approach tosequence detection (opens in new tab)

The detection of sequences of interest, such as antimicrobial resistance genes, directly from genomic and metagenomic sequencing data has become routine, enabled by curated reference databases and rapid in silico sequence search tools. Yet most workflows depend on prior assembly, an inherently lossy process in which a substantial proportion of reads fail to assemble or are collapsed into consensus sequences, causing low-abundance variants and nucleotide-level diversity to be systematically ob...
