What is chimera check ?..

Answer / g.s.krishna

The Chimera Detection program accepts a sequence file and
returns a histogram that may indicate whether your sequence
is of chimeric origin.

It works by comparing evolutionary distances between a
query and subject sequence over the length of the 16S rRNA
gene by employing a sampling window of specified size,
progressing a fixed number of bases at a time along the
length of the gene.
