It is particularly good +at aligning reads of about 50 up to 100s or 1,000s of characters, and +particularly good at aligning to relatively long (e.g. mammalian) +genomes. Bowtie 2 indexes the genome with an FM Index to keep its +memory footprint small: for the human genome, its memory footprint is +typically around 3.2 GB. Bowtie 2 supports gapped, local, and paired- +end alignment modes. + +Please cite: +Langmead B, Salzberg S. Fast gapped-read alignment with Bowtie 2. +Nature Methods. 2012, 9:357-359. |
