This study evaluates the use of Single Board Computers (SBCs) for portable, real-time bioinformatics in fieldwork by benchmarking their performance against laptops and cloud-based systems.

This paper introduces R4IDs, a method using long-read sequencing to rapidly generate reference datasets for species identification, validated with plant species and simulations.

This paper demonstrates that real-time nanopore sequencing in the field can rapidly and accurately identify plant species and improve genome assembly compared to lab-based methods.
