I'm looking to do taxonomic assignment for DNA sequenced with Nanopore. I have ITS and 16S amplified from soil DNA, and the quality is pretty good after filtration. What tool or program do you use for this and why?
Several tools and pipelines are available for taxonomic assignment of DNA sequences obtained from Nanopore sequencing. Popular options include Kraken/Kraken2, Bracken, MetaMaps, PRONAME, and EPI2ME, especially when dealing with 16S rRNA gene data. For more comprehensive analysis and broader applications, QIIME 2 is also a strong contender.
