	<title><![CDATA[CrossMap: a program for convenient conversion of genome coordinates]]></title>
	<description><![CDATA[CrossMap is a program for convenient conversion of genome coordinates (or annotation files) between different assemblies (such as Human hg18 (NCBI36) &lt;&gt; hg19 (GRCh37), Mouse mm9 (MGSCv37) &lt;&gt; mm10 (GRCm38)).

It supports most commonly used file formats including SAM/BAM, Wiggle/BigWig, BED, GFF/GTF, VCF.

CrossMap is designed to liftover genome coordinates between assemblies. 

It’s not a program for aligning sequences to reference genome.

We do not recommend using CrossMap to convert genome coordinates between species.<p>Address of the bookmark: <a href="http://crossmap.sourceforge.net" rel="nofollow">http://crossmap.sourceforge.net</a></p>]]></description>

	<description><![CDATA[Download and install MUMmer
Align your assembly to a reference genome using nucmer (from MUMmer package)
$ nucmer -maxmatch -l 100 -c 500 REFERENCE.fa ASSEMBLY.fa -prefix OUT
Consult the MUMmer manual if you encounter problems

Optional: Gzip the delta file to speed up upload (usually 2-4X faster)
$ gzip OUT.delta
Then use the OUT.delta.gz file for upload.
Upload the .delta or delta.gz file (view example) to Assemblytics
Important: Use only contigs rather than scaffolds from the assembly. This will prevent false positives when the number of Ns in the scaffolded sequence does not match perfectly to the distance in the reference.

The unique sequence length required represents an anchor for determining if a sequence is unique enough to safely call variants from, which is an alternative to the mapping quality filter for read alignment.

	<description><![CDATA[<p>LR_Gapcloser is a gap closing tool using long reads from studied species. The long reads could be downloaed from public read archive database (for instance, NCBI SRA database ) or be your own data. Then they are fragmented and aligned to scaffolds using BWA mem algorithm in BWA package. In the package, we provided a compiled bwa, so the user needn't to install bwa. LR_Gapcloser uses the alignments to find the bridging that cross the gap, and then fills the long read original sequence into the genomic gaps.</p><p>Address of the bookmark: <a href="https://github.com/CAFS-bioinformatics/LR_Gapcloser" rel="nofollow">https://github.com/CAFS-bioinformatics/LR_Gapcloser</a></p>]]></description>
