USEARCH v11

-strand option

 
Required for nucleotide searches. Value must be set to plus or both.
 
-strand plus   Search for hits on the forward (plus) strand only. This is faster, so is recommended when the query sequences are known to be oriented on the same strand as the database.
 
-strand both   Search for hits on both the forward and reverse-complemented strands.
