BacTag - a pipeline for fast and accurate gene and allele typing in bacterial sequencing data based on database preprocessing

Abstract Background Bacteria carry a wide array of genes, some of which have multiple alleles. These different alleles are often responsible for distinct types of virulence and can determine the classification at the subspecies levels (e.g., housekeeping genes for Multi Locus Sequence Typing, MLST)....
