Description: Detect and remove chimeras from your amplicon sequence
        analysis using reference-based or de novo approaches. The
        'rchime' package implements the 'VSEARCH' algorithms described
        in Rognes et al. (2016) <doi:10.7717/peerj.2584>. 'VSEARCH'
        builds on the work of Edgar,R.C. et al. (2011)
        <doi:10.1093/bioinformatics/btr381>.
