+You will only find the `.fastq` files in the results directory if you provide ` --save_preprocessed_reads`. Alternatively, if you wish only to have the 'final' reads that go into classification/profiling (i.e., that may have additional processing), do not specify this flag but rather specify `--save_analysis_ready_reads`, in which case the reads will be in the folder `analysis_ready_reads`.

 ### Bowtie2
 
 [Bowtie 2](https://bowtie-bio.sourceforge.net/bowtie2/index.shtml) is an ultrafast and memory-efficient tool for aligning sequencing reads to long reference sequences. It is particularly good at aligning reads of about 50 up to 100s or 1,000s of characters, and particularly good at aligning to relatively long (e.g. mammalian) genomes.

+There are two options for long-read quality filtering: [`Filtlong`](https://github.com/rrwick/Filtlong) and [`nanoq`](https://github.com/esteinig/nanoq).
 
 The tools offer different algorithms and parameters for removing low complexity reads and quality filtering. We therefore recommend reviewing the pipeline's [parameter documentation](https://nf-co.re/taxprofiler/parameters) and the documentation of the tools (see links above) to decide on optimal methods and parameters for your dataset.
