The aim of MEGAN is to provide a tool for studying the taxonomic content of a set of DNA reads, typically collected in a metagenomics project.
Main features:
- Taxonomic analysis using the NCBI taxonomy or a customized taxonomy such as SILVA
- Functional analysis using InterPro2GO, SEED, eggNOG or KEGG
- Bar charts, word clouds, Voronoi tree maps and many other charts
- PCoA, clustering and networks
- Supports metadata
- MEGAN parses many different types of input
WCG uses idle computer time to help tackle projects that benefit humanity.
