	<title><![CDATA[BlobToolKit: A toolkit for genome assembly QC]]></title>
	<description><![CDATA[<p>Filtering raw genomic datasets is essential to avoid chimeric assemblies and to increase the validity of sequence-based biological inference. BlobToolKit extends the BlobTools<span>1</span>/Blobology<span>2</span>&nbsp;approach to simplify interactive and reproducible filtering.</p>
<p>BlobToolKit is comprised of four components:</p>
<ol>
<li><a href="https://blobtoolkit.genomehubs.org/btk-viewer/">BlobToolKit Viewer</a>&nbsp;allows browser-based interactive visualisation and filtering of preliminary or published genomic datasets even for highly fragmented assemblies.</li>
<li><a href="https://blobtoolkit.genomehubs.org/blobtools2/">BlobTools2</a>&nbsp;is a command-line program to convert assemblies and analysis results into datasets that can be further processed using&nbsp;<a href="https://blobtoolkit.genomehubs.org/blobtools2/">BlobTools2</a>&nbsp;and/or visualised in the Viewer.</li>
<li>The&nbsp;<a href="https://blobtoolkit.genomehubs.org/specification/">BlobToolKit Specification</a>&nbsp;features a formal schema and validator for the JSON-based BlobDir format used by&nbsp;<a href="https://blobtoolkit.genomehubs.org/blobtools2/">BlobTools2</a>&nbsp;and the&nbsp;<a href="https://blobtoolkit.genomehubs.org/btk-viewer/">Viewer</a>.</li>
<li>The&nbsp;<a href="https://blobtoolkit.genomehubs.org/pipeline/">BlobToolKit Pipeline</a>&nbsp;is a configurable Snakemake pipeline that automates all steps from retrieving public datasets through running analyses and generating a BlobDir dataset with&nbsp;<a href="https://blobtoolkit.genomehubs.org/blobtools2/">BlobTools2</a>, ready for visualisation in the&nbsp;<a href="https://blobtoolkit.genomehubs.org/btk-viewer/">Viewer</a>.</li>

	<description><![CDATA[<p><span>Given a de novo assembly, we often measure the &ldquo;average&rdquo; contig length by N50.&nbsp;</span><a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/N50,_L50,_and_related_statistics">N50</a><span>&nbsp;is neither the real average nor median. It is the length of the contig such that this and longer contigs cover at least 50% of the assembly. A longer N50 indicates better contiguity. We can similarly define N</span><em>x</em><span>&nbsp;such that contigs no shorter than N</span><em>x</em><span>&nbsp;covers&nbsp;</span><em>x</em><span>% of the assembly.
