In addition to Martin's suggestions, you could also consider clustering
your reads by similarity with UCLUST or SEED. The latter was developed
for removing redundancies in NGS samples, diagnosing PCR bias in RNA-Seq
experiments and some other applications. At this point it has not been
integrated into an R package yet.
