Naïve Bayesian Classifier for Rapid Assignment of rRNA Sequences into the New Bacterial Taxonomy

TL;DR: The RDP Classifier can rapidly and accurately classify bacterial 16S rRNA sequences into the new higher-order taxonomy proposed in Bergey's Taxonomic Outline of the Prokaryotes, and the majority of the classification errors appear to be due to anomalies in the current taxonomies.
Journal ArticleDOI

The Ribosomal Database Project: improved alignments and new tools for rRNA analysis

TL;DR: An improved alignment strategy uses the Infernal secondary structure aware aligner to provide a more consistent higher quality alignment and faster processing of user sequences, and a new Pyrosequencing Pipeline that provides tools to support analysis of ultra high-throughput rRNA sequencing data.
Journal ArticleDOI

Ribosomal Database Project: data and tools for high throughput rRNA analysis

TL;DR: RDP now includes a collection of fungal large subunit rRNA genes, and most tools are now available as open source packages for download and local use by researchers with high-volume needs or who would like to develop custom analysis pipelines.
Journal ArticleDOI

The Ribosomal Database Project (RDP-II): sequences and tools for high-throughput rRNA analysis

TL;DR: The Ribosomal Database Project (RDP-II) provides the research community with aligned and annotated rRNA gene sequences, along with analysis services and a phylogenetically consistent taxonomic framework for these data.
Journal ArticleDOI

The Ribosomal Database Project (RDP-II): previewing a new autoaligner that allows regular updates and the new prokaryotic taxonomy

TL;DR: The Ribosomal Database Project-II (RDP-II) pro-vides data, tools and services related to ribosomal RNA sequences to the research community and debuts a new regularly updated alignment of over 50 000 annotated (eu)bacterial sequences.
