Detailed Description

Sets the local alignment method.

There are several methods for sequence alignment. We distinguish between local and global alignments. The semi-global alignment is implemented as a variation of the global alignment.

Local Alignment (better suited to find conserved segments):

tccCAGTTATGTCAGgggacacgagcatgcagagac
||||||||||||
aattgccgccgtcgttttcagCAGTTATGTCAGatc

A local alignment is effectively a global alignment of two partial sequences. For example when two genes from different species are similar in short conserved regions and dissimilar in the remaining regions. A global alignment would not find the local matching because it would try to align the entire sequence. This is solved by the Smith-Waterman algorithm.
