rRNADif is a method to measure intragenomic 16S rRNA variability within the desired genome sequence against a chosen set of organisms. The app is calculating ML phylogenetic tree and uses mean/median branch length within set of 16S rRNA as a measure of variability between them
By default precomputed database of 21000+ fully sequenced bacterial genomes is available for comparison. However, custom database generation is possible (see documentation)
