About RDP Release 10

RDP Release 10 brings two major changes to the RDP:

  • RDP10 provides new Bacterial and Archaeal alignments with several significant enhancements over the previous RDP 9 alignments.

  • Use of a new secondary-structure based aligner that provides better support for short partial sequences and handles certain sequencing artifacts in a more intuitive manner.
