BFAST 0.7.0 – Alignment Tool for Large Scale Genome Resequencing

BFAST 0.7.0

:: DESCRIPTION

BFAST (Blat-like Fast Accurate Search Tool) facilitates the fast and accurate mapping of short reads to reference sequences. Some advantages of BFAST include:
Speed: enables billions of short reads to be mapped quickly.
Accuracy: A priori probabilities for mapping reads with defined set of variants.
An easy way to measurably tune accuracy at the expense of speed.
