alignment: the mapping of a raw sequence read to a location within a reference genome. The mapping occurs because the sequences within the raw read match or align to sequences within the reference genome. Alignment information is stored in the SAM...

github.com - MashMap is a fast and approximate software for mapping long reads (PacBio/ONT) or assembly to reference genome(s). It maps a query sequence against a reference region if and only if its estimated alignment identity is above a specified threshold. It...

github.com - A de novo genome assembly can be summarised b y a number of metrics, including: Overall assembly length Number of scaffolds/contigs Length of longest scaffold/contig Scaffold/contig N50 and N90Assembly base composition, in...

ics.hutton.ac.uk - Strudel is our graphical tool for visualizing genetic and physical maps of genomes for comparative purposes. The application aims to let the user examine their data at a variety of different levels of resolution, from entire maps to individual...

github.com - SKESA is a DeBruijn graph-based de-novo assembler designed for assembling reads of microbial genomes sequenced using Illumina. Comparison with SPAdes and MegaHit shows that SKESA produces assemblies that have high sequence quality and contiguity,...

cab.spbu.ru - QUAST-LG is an extension of QUAST intended for evaluating large-scale genome assemblies (up to mammalian-size). QUAST-LG is included in the QUAST  package starting from version 5.0.0 (download the latest release). Run QUAST as...

To decide which strategy should be our “preferred” genome assembly approach based on data rather than my gut-feeling about the “best assembly” I decided to do some testing with a known “true” reference E Coli K12 MG1655

R Graphical Cookbook by Winston Chang A very nice book by Winston Chang for R ethusiast. The R code presented in these pages is the R code actually used to produce the Figures in the book. There will be differences compared to the code chunks shown...

blobtoolkit.genomehubs.org - Filtering raw genomic datasets is essential to avoid chimeric assemblies and to increase the validity of sequence-based biological inference. BlobToolKit extends the BlobTools1/Blobology2 approach to simplify interactive and reproducible...
