Bowtie 2 is a fast, memory-efficient genomic read aligner used to map sequencing reads against long reference sequences such as mammalian genomes. It is especially effective for reads ranging from around 50 bases to hundreds or thousands of characters, and it supports modern sequencing workflows that require gapped, local, and paired-end alignment. The tool builds compact FM-index-based reference indexes, keeping memory usage low even for large genomes like the human genome. ...

UniversalMer is a k-mer counting tool for multiple size of k at once. It is available for DNA, RNA, and protein sequences. The program counts and summarizes the exact frequency of all k-mers from 1-mer to a user-defined maximum length (kmax). Analyzing the k-mer spectrum across multiple values of k can be done in seconds. This program is designed for bioinformatics researchers and scientists.

slimfastq is a cli application that compresses/decompresses fastq files. It features: * High compression ratio * Relatively low cpu/memory usage * Truly lossless compression/decompression
