| Abstract |
|---|
Motivation: High throughput sequencing technologies generate large amounts of short reads. Mapping these to a reference sequence consumes large amounts of processing time and memory, and read mapping errors can lead to noisy or incorrect alignments. SNP-o-matic is a fast, memory-efficient, and stringent read mapping tool offering a variety of analytical output functions, with an emphasis on geno-typing.
