From small to large-scale genome comparison
Abstract
Sequence comparison is a core problem in bioinformatics. It is used widely in evolutionary studies, structural and functional analyses, assembly, metagenomics, etc. Despite its regular presence in everyday Life-sciences pipelines, it is still not a trivial step that can be overlooked. Therefore, understanding how sequence comparison works is key to developing efficient workflows that are central to so many other disciplines.
