It implements two algorithms, bwa- +short and BWA-SW. The former works for query sequences shorter than +200bp and the latter for longer sequences up to around 100kbp. Both +algorithms do gapped alignment. They are usually more accurate and +faster on queries with low error rates. + +If you use BWA-SW, please cite: +Li H. and Durbin R.
