Abstract:Due to the increasing availability of high-quality genome sequences, pan-genomes are gradually replacing single consensus reference genomes in many bioinformatics pipelines to better capture genetic diversity. Traditional bioinformatics tools using the FM-index face memory limitations with such large genome collections. Recent advancements in run-length compressed indices like Gagie et al.’s r-index and Nishimoto and Tabei’s move structure, alleviate memory constraints but focus primarily on backward search fo… Show more
