A fast and agnostic method for bacterial genome-wide association studies: Bridging the gap between k-mers and genetic events.
Genome-wide association study (GWAS) methods applied to bacterial genomes have shown promising results for genetic marker discovery or detailed assessment of marker effect. Recently, alignment-free methods based on k-mer composition have proven their ability to explore the accessory genome. However,...
