MetaGenomeThreader: A Software Tool for Predicting Genes in DNA-Sequences of Metagenome Projects
We consider a gene finding method that is specifically designed to work on metagenome sequences. The method can handle short metagenome sequences with in-frame stop codons as well as frame shifts. It delivers ...
