From genomes to phenotypes: Traitar, the microbial trait analyzer
![](https://microbe.net/wp-content/uploads/2017/02/F5.large_-300x261.jpg)
There is an increasing number of studies with a large number genomes recovered from isolate, metagenome, or single cell sequencing. To bridge the gap between the available genome sequences and available phenotype information, we have developed Traitar, a bioinformatics software to phenotype bacteria based on their genome sequence (see workflow below) . Traitar includes phenotype models for …
