	<description><![CDATA[<ul>
<li>CrossMap is a program for convenient conversion of genome coordinates (or annotation files) between&nbsp;<em>different assemblies</em>&nbsp;(such as Human&nbsp;<a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/assembly/2928/">hg18 (NCBI36)</a>&nbsp;&lt;&gt;&nbsp;<a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/assembly/2758/">hg19 (GRCh37)</a>, Mouse&nbsp;<a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/assembly/165668/">mm9 (MGSCv37)</a>&nbsp;&lt;&gt;&nbsp;<a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/assembly/327618/">mm10 (GRCm38)</a>).</li>
<li>It supports most commonly used file formats including SAM/BAM, Wiggle/BigWig, BED, GFF/GTF, VCF.</li>
<li>CrossMap is designed to liftover genome coordinates between assemblies. It&rsquo;s&nbsp;<em>not</em>&nbsp;a program for aligning sequences to reference genome.</li>
<li>We&nbsp;<em>do not</em>&nbsp;recommend using CrossMap to convert genome coordinates between species.</li>

GRAIL, GENSCAN,&nbsp;</span><tt>geneid</tt><span>, FGENESH, GenomeScan, GrailEXP and GENEWISE will be used to annotate the sequence. Both search by signal, content and homology (protein and cDNA sequences) methods will be employed in order to improve the ab initio results. Weak conservation of Start codons will lead to wrong prediction of initial exons in most cases.</span></p>

Pipeline options:
--only-error-correction runs only read error correction (without assembling)
--only-assembler        runs only assembling (without read error correction)
--careful               tries to reduce number of mismatches and short indels
--continue              continue run from the last available check-point
--restart-from  &lt;cp&gt;    restart run with updated options and from the specified check-point ('ec', 'as', 'k&lt;int&gt;', 'mc')
--disable-gzip-output   forces error correction not to compress the corrected reads
--disable-rr            disables repeat resolution stage of assembling

Advanced options:
--dataset       &lt;filename&gt;      file with dataset description in YAML format
-t/--threads    &lt;int&gt;           number of threads
                                [default: 16]
-m/--memory     &lt;int&gt;           RAM limit for SPAdes in Gb (terminates if exceeded)
                                [default: 250]
--tmp-dir       &lt;dirname&gt;       directory for temporary files
                                [default: &lt;output_dir&gt;/tmp]
-k              &lt;int,int,...&gt;   comma-separated list of k-mer sizes (must be odd and
                                less than 128) [default: 'auto']
--cov-cutoff    &lt;float&gt;         coverage cutoff value (a positive float number, or 'auto', or 'off') [default: 'off']
--phred-offset  &lt;33 or 64&gt;      PHRED quality offset in the input reads (33 or 64)
                                [default: auto-detect]
</code></pre></div><p>As you can see this is also a &ldquo;pipeline&rdquo; of tools that can be switched on or off. SPAdes takes quite a long time, so for the purposes of this practical, something like this may suffice:</p><div><pre><code>spades.py -t 4 <span>\</span>
          -m 32 <span>\</span>
          -k 31,51,71 <span>\</span>
          --only-assembler <span>\</span>
          -1 miseq.1.fastq -2 miseq.2.fastq <span>\</span>
          --nanopore minion.fastq <span>\</span>
          -o hybrid_assembly
</code></pre></div><p>In turn, these parameters mean</p><ul>
<li>use 4 threads</li>
<li>max memory is 32Gb</li>
<li>use 3 kmer values to build the de bruijn graph(s) - 31, 51 and 71</li>
<li>only run the assembler, not the correction algorithm (for speed)</li>
<li>read 1 and read 2 of the MiSeq data</li>
<li>the nanopore data</li>
<li>put the output in folder &ldquo;hybrid_assembly&rdquo;</li>
</ul>]]></description>

	<description><![CDATA[<p>EAGLER is a scaffolding tool for long reads. The scaffolder takes as input a draft genome created by any NGS assembler and a set of long reads. The long reads are used to extend the contigs present in the NGS draft and possibly join overlapping contigs. EAGLER supports both PacBio and Oxford Nanopore reads.</p>
<p>The tool should be compatible with most UNIX flavors and has been successfully tested on the following operating systems:</p>
<ul>
<li>Mac OS X 10.11.1</li>
<li>Mac OS X 10.10.3</li>
<li>Ubuntu 14.04 LTS</li>

<p id="p-2">Summary: GenomeScope is an open-source web tool to rapidly estimate the overall characteristics of a genome, including genome size, heterozygosity rate, and repeat content from unprocessed short reads. These features are essential for studying genome evolution, and help to choose parameters for downstream analysis. We demonstrate its accuracy on 324 simulated and 16 real datasets with a wide range in genome sizes, heterozygosity levels, and error rates.
