Description
EUKulele is a Python program for taxonomic annotation of microbes in metatranscriptomic and metagenomic samples, with special emphasis on eukaryote discovery.
The software includes four major features:
* Database setup and formatting
* Database creation, alignment, and taxonomic estimation
* Assessment of the BUSCO completeness of subsets of contigs at each taxonomic level
* Assessment of taxonomic classification using only BUSCO-identified core eukaryotic genes
In principle, there are two prerequisites for running the software:
- Metagenomic or metatranscriptomic sample files (unless using the provided sample data)
- A database1 to which to align the contigs from the metagenome or metatranscriptome.
