I recommend to have a look at this BOL
For De-novo Genome Assembly -- Canu. Flye and MARVEL sound promising.Alignment -- minimap2 and/or LAST, depending on the application.
LAST is particularly good...
bpRNA, a novel annotation tool capable of parsing RNA structures, including complex pseudoknot-containing RNAs, to yield an objective, precise, compact, unambiguous, easily-interpretable description of all loops, stems, and pseudoknots, along with...
Canu is one of the best de novo assemblers available for long reads - it’s a fork and updated version of the Celera assembler that was used to assemble the human genome.
It is quite a complex beast that has HPC integration built in -...
I followed this to assemble the genome using ONT (nanopore reads)
Minimap and miniasm are ultrafast tools for (i) mapping and (ii) assembly. Designed for long, noisy reads, they do not have a correction or consensus step, and therefore the...
Hapsembler is a haplotype-specific genome assembly toolkit that is designed for genomes that are rich in SNPs and other types of polymorphism. Hapsembler can be used to assemble reads from a variety of platforms including Illumina and Roche/454....
we propose a heuristic algorithm, called DUPCAR, for reconstructing ancestral genomic orders with duplications. The method starts from the order of genes in modern genomes and predicts predecessor and successor relationships in the ancestor. Then a...
Ancestral sequence reconstruction (ASR) – also known as ancestral gene/sequence reconstruction/resurrection – is a technique used in the study of molecular evolution. The method consists of the synthesis of an...
TACOA is a software that can accurately predict the taxonomic origin of genomic fragments from metagenomic data sets by combining the advantages of the k -NN approach with a smoothing kernel function.
TACOA can be easily installed and run on a...
A tool to circularize genome assemblies. The algorithm and benchmarks are described in the Genome Biology manuscript.

TULIP currently consists of two Perl scripts, tulipseed.perl and tulipbulb.perl. These are very much intended as prototypes, and additional components and/or implementations are likely to follow.
Tulipseed takes as input alignments files of long...
