The phrase "remaining reads" is correct and can be used in written English.
You could use it in a sentence such as, "Of the 500 books I own, I have only 11 remaining reads."
Remaining reads were mapped to P. putida KT2440 genome using Bowtie with the default parameters.
The remaining reads were used to predict novel miRNA candidates using the updated miRanalyzer webserver (Hackenberg et al., 2011).
Next, the low-quality reads were filtered, and the remaining reads were used for the additional mapping steps.
Low-quality reads (with an average quality value below 8) were filtered and the remaining reads were used for the additional mapping steps.
The remaining reads were discarded.
The remaining reads (∼34%) could be broadly classified as viral, bacterial, archaeal and eukaryotic origin.
The remaining reads were singletons or considered either erroneous or contaminations.
3) Finally, the remaining reads were searched for no exact matches of the adapter.
OTUs were assigned to 99.95% of reads and the remaining reads were excluded from further study.
Remaining reads were imported into the GS amplicon software (Roche, Penzberg, Germany) and aligned.
HMMSplicer begins by dividing the remaining reads in half and aligning each half to the genome.
