十年前，微生物基因组数量的急剧增加导致了一个转折点，当时在综合数据库中找到短而精确的匹配的方法变得与旧的，较慢的方法一样准确。新的想法导致了一种比以前快数百倍的方法。如今，精确的k-mer匹配是许多微生物组分析工具的核心标准技术。
Ten years ago, the dramatic rise in the number of microbial genomes led to an inflection point, when the approach of finding short, exact matches in a comprehensive database became just as accurate as older, slower approaches. The new idea led to a method that was hundreds of times times faster than those that came before. Today, exact k-mer matching is a standard technique at the heart of many microbiome analysis tools.
