@nicolaromano ah just the ~10 Illumina primers, like the ones that come with Trimmomatic

@PhilippBayer ahahah ok, that makes sense.I was envisioning grand plans of crawling the literature for most used primer sequences! Imagine the nightmare of seeing 'Other users of this gene have also used this primer'
@nicolaromano so you can talk if you use the same primers a lot. Everything's a dating app on 2023
