okay bestie, so this is the manual page for the mothur command β€” the General Commands Manual girlies know her, she's out here doing sequence analysis for research on microbiota ✨


🌸 NAME 🌸

mothur β€” sequence analysis suite for research on microbiota 🦠🧚


✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

mothur [ batchfile ]

that's it. that's the whole summoning ritual. one optional batchfile and she's off πŸ‘‘


πŸ¦‹ DESCRIPTION πŸ¦‹

okay so real talk, this manual page documents the mothur command briefly. lowkey it's giving "we're not gonna explain every single thing here" and honestly? fair. πŸ’…

Mothur seeks to develop a single piece of open-source, expandable software to fill the bioinformatics needs of the microbial ecology community. no cap, one tool, open source, expandable, serving the entire microbial ecology community β€” main character energy fr fr 🌈

and here's the part that ate: it has incorporated the functionality of dotur, sons, treeclimber, s-libshuff, unifrac, and much more. like, not me absorbing whole other tools into my personality 😭 iconic behaviour.

and that's not even all of it β€” in addition to improving the flexibility of these algorithms, a number of other features were added, including calculators and visualization tools. obsessed. πŸŽ€
