SYNOPSIS
kmc_tools union <input1 [input1_params]> <input2 [input2_params]> <output [output_params]>
DESCRIPTION
The output database will contain all k-mers present in both input sets. For the same k-mers in the first and the second input, the counter in the output is equal to the sum from both inputs.
OPTIONS
For each input there are additional parameters:
-ci<value>
- exclude k-mers occurring less than <value> times
-cx<value>
- exclude k-mers occurring more of than <value> times
For output there are additional parameters:
-ci<value>
- exclude k-mers occurring less than <value> times
-cx<value>
- exclude k-mers occurring more of than <value> times
-cs<value>
- maximal value of a counter
