16S Ribosomal RNA Sequencing is used extensively in analzying bacterial phylogeny and taxonomy. This project attempts to streamline the 16S sequencing pipeline using local file databases to replace multiple flat sequence files used in the pipeline, to ease logistical burdens on the researcher and enable greater metadata analysis and accountability of experiments.
