pr2database 4.14.0
Released: 2021-06-25
A single SSU database
From version 4.14.0, a single SSU database is provided which contains sequences for: * 18S rRNA from nuclear and nucleomorph * 16S rRNA from plastid, apicoplast, chromatophore, mitochondrion * 16S rRNA from a small selection of bacteria
The rationale is that the database can now be used to detect bacterial sequences that are amplified with either 18S rRNA or “universal” primers. These sequences can be further assigned with Silva or GTDB.
In order to allow correct assignation with software such as DECIPHER (IDTax) for organelle, the taxonomy is appended with 4 letters corresponding to the organelle
| Organelle | Taxonomy suffix |
|---|---|
| nucleus | |
| nucleomorph | :nucl |
| plastid | :plas |
| apicoplast | :apic |
| chromatophore | :chrom |
| mitochondrion | :mito |
