Wtdbg2: a de novo sequence assembler for long noisy reads produced by PacBio or Oxford Nanopore

https://github.com/ruanjue/wtdbg2

Wtdbg2 is a de novo sequence assembler for long noisy reads produced by PacBio or Oxford Nanopore Technologies (ONT). It assembles raw reads without error correction and then builds the consensus from intermediate assembly output. Wtdbg2 is able to assemble the human and even the 32Gb Axolotl genome at a speed tens of times faster than CANU and FALCONwhile producing contigs of comparable base accuracy.
