MLTreeMap--accurate Maximum Likelihood placement of environmental DNA sequences into taxonomic and functional reference phylogenies.

abstract：BACKGROUND:New gene emergence is so far assumed to be mostly driven by duplication and divergence of existing genes. The possibility that entirely new genes could emerge out of the non-coding genomic background was long thought to be almost negligible. With the increasing availability of fully sequenced genomes across ...
