  Description     : Mine sequence data to identify sequences of microbial origin

 VirusSeeker is a set of fully automated and modular software package designed
 for mining sequence data to identify sequences of microbial origin. The
 pipeline was optimized for analysis of data generated by the Illumina next
 generation sequencing platform but can be applied to data generated by other
 platforms as well.
 .
 VirusSeeker first identifies candidate viral sequences by comparing with
 virus-only databases and then identify true viral sequences by comparing the
 candiate viral sequences to NCBI NT and NR databases. Microbial sequences are
 identified on the basis of BLAST alignments and the taxonomic classification
 of the reference sequence(s) to which a read is aligned.  Viruses are the
 focal point of VirusSeeker as released.
