Metaxa updated

Just a short note; Metaxa has been updated to version 1.0.1. This incremental version brings two small new features, and a minimal bug fix.

  • Added the option to select whether HMMER’s heuristic filtering should be used or not. This can be configured using the –heuristics option:
    –heuristics {T or F} : Selects whether to use HMMER’s heuristic filtering, off (F) by default
  • Removed some redundant information written to the screen, as output to the screen was a bit cluttered.

Bug fix:

  • Fixed a rare bug affecting detection sensivity of some SSU sequences.

Of course I would recommend it to every Metaxa user as it fixes a small bug, but the update is not in anyway critical for normal use.  The updated version can be downloaded using this link.
