More recently, we've been enthused about using k-mer based similarity measures and computing and searching k-mer-based sketch search databases for all the things.

But I haven't spent too much talking about using k-mers for taxonomy, although that has become an ahem area of interest recently, if you read into our papers a bit.

In this blog post I'm going to fix this by doing a little bit of a literature review and waxing enthusiastic about other people's work. Then in a future blog post I'll talk about how we're building off of this work in fun! and interesting? ways!

General information.

Field terminator is "\t|\t"

Row terminator is "\t|\n"

nodes.dmp file consists of taxonomy nodes. The description for each node includes the following

fields:

tax_id -- node id in GenBank taxonomy database

  parent tax_id -- parent node id in GenBank taxonomy database

  rank -- rank of this node (superkingdom, kingdom, ...) 

  embl code -- locus-name prefix; not unique

  division id -- see division.dmp file

  inherited div flag  (1 or 0) -- 1 if node inherits division from parent

  genetic code id -- see gencode.dmp file

  inherited GC  flag  (1 or 0) -- 1 if node inherits genetic code from parent

  mitochondrial genetic code id -- see gencode.dmp file

  inherited MGC flag  (1 or 0) -- 1 if node inherits mitochondrial gencode from parent

  GenBank hidden flag (1 or 0)            -- 1 if name is suppressed in GenBank entry lineage

  hidden subtree root flag (1 or 0)       -- 1 if this subtree has no sequence data yet

  comments -- free-text comments and citations

Taxonomy names file (names.dmp):

tax_id -- the id of node associated with this name

name_txt -- name itself

unique name -- the unique variant of this name if name not unique

name class -- (synonym, common name, ...)

Divisions file (division.dmp):
