Bracken reference databases update request in order to cover options provided by Kraken2

Dear Admins,

Could you please update the list of Kmer distribution reference databases for Bracken tool as it is currently in Kraken2 (Galaxy Version 2.1.3+galaxy1):

Thus, users can recalculate in Bracken all kinds of reports generated, by any of the listed from Kraken2 reference databases.

Many thanks for considering my request.

Hi @Yordan_Hodzhev

Thanks for asking the question. This has come up before but maybe it can be examined again. I made a new ticket for the request here → Update Braken to enable use of both Kraken and Kraken2 indexes · Issue #6160 · galaxyproject/tools-iuc · GitHub

If you want to help to make the change, the IUC will offer guidance. Just comment on that ticket to get connected.

Thanks! :slight_smile:
