Poppunk

Introduction

PopPUNK is a tool for clustering genomes. We refer to the clusters as variable-length-k-mer clusters, or VLKCs. Biologically, these clusters typically represent distinct strains. We refer to subclusters of strains as lineages.

Example job

Warning

Using #!/bin/sh -l as shebang in the slurm job script will cause the failure of some biocontainer modules. Please use #!/bin/bash instead.

To run poppunk on our clusters:

#!/bin/bash
#SBATCH -A myallocation     # Allocation name
#SBATCH -t 1:00:00
#SBATCH -N 1
#SBATCH -n 1
#SBATCH --job-name=poppunk
