Full 2D ONT long read k-mer uniqueness in the E. coli K-12 genome reference. k-mers were extracted from both the Full 2D R7 ONT data [6] and the E. coli K-12 substr. MG1655 (accession U00096.2) reference genome sequence. A Bloom filter [35] was built from the latter and k-mers extracted from the former files used to query the filter for matching sequences. k = 15 gives the best compromise of specificity, yield and uniqueness with the data set at hand
