BLAST like output from NGS fastq file

Question

[MSRS]

Hi everyone.

We all like blast output format. For NGS short-read analysis, DIAMOND has the offering of aligning to protein database (blastx & blastp). Is there any other tools that gives the opportunity like blastn for the short-read NGS data?

Thank you.

magicblast (LINK) from NCBI can do this. You could convert your fastq files to fasta and use standard blast+ or blat if you have the patience to wait and hardware to match.
