USEARCH v11

Pipeline example: minimal, paired

See also
  OTU / denoising pipeline

Description
This example shows the minimum commands you need to get from overlapping paired reads to OTUs and denoised (ZOTU) sequences. In practice, you'll probably need to do more read preparation. There are 4,259 reads of a mock community which generate ~21 OTUs and ~22 ZOTUs. You need to set the environment variable $usearch to the name (or path) for your usearch binary file.
