DESCRIPTION

       This manual page documents briefly the mothur command.

       Mothur  seeks  to  develop  a single piece of open-source, expandable software to fill the
       bioinformatics  needs  of  the  microbial  ecology  community.  It  has  incorporated  the
       functionality of dotur, sons, treeclimber, s-libshuff, unifrac, and much more. In addition
       to improving the flexibility of these algorithms, a number  of  other  features  including
       calculators and visualization tools were added.
