Homology-based misassembly correction
Homology-based assembly scaffolding and patching
Scaffold merging
Dr. Jarvis’ laboratory studies the neurobiology of vocal communication. We want to know how the brain generates, perceives, and learns behavior. We use vocal communication as a model behavior. Emphasis is placed on the molecular pathways involved in...

If we only had Illumina reads, we could also assemble these using the tool Spades.
You can try this here, or try it later on your own data.

We will use the same Illumina data as we used above:
illumina_R1.fastq.gz: the Illumina...
