Genome assembly projects typically run multiple algorithms in an attempt to find the single best assembly, although those assemblies often have complementary, if untapped, strengths and weaknesses. We present our metassembler algorithm that merges multiple assemblies of a genome into a single superior sequence.

-f sequences to scaffold (Multi-FASTA format, required)
-s file-of-filenames, full path to long sequence reads or MPET pairs [see below] (Multi-FASTA/fastq format, required)
-m MPET reads (default -m 1 = yes, default = no, optional)
! DO NOT SET IF NOT USING MPET. WHEN SET, LINKS WILL EXPECT A SPECIAL FORMAT UNDER -s
! Paired MPET reads in their original outward orientation <- -> must be separated by ":"

-d distance between k-mer pairs (ie. target distances to re-scaffold on. default -d 4000, optional)
Multiple distances are separated by comma. eg. -d 500,1000,2000,3000
-k k-mer value (default -k 15, optional)
-t step of sliding window when extracting k-mer pairs from long reads (default -t 2, optional)
Multiple steps are separated by comma. eg. -t 10,5
-o offset position for extracting k-mer pairs (default -o 0, optional)
-e error (%) allowed on -d distance e.g. -e 0.1 == distance +/- 10% (default -e 0.1, optional)
-l minimum number of links (k-mer pairs) to compute scaffold (default -l 5, optional)
-a maximum link ratio between two best contig pairs (default -a 0.3, optional)
*higher values lead to least accurate scaffolding*
-z minimum contig length to consider for scaffolding (default -z 500, optional)
-b base name for your output files (optional)
-r Bloom filter input file for sequences supplied in -s (optional, if none provided will output to .bloom)
NOTE: BLOOM FILTER MUST BE DERIVED FROM THE SAME FILE SUPPLIED IN -f WITH SAME -k VALUE
IF YOU DO NOT SUPPLY A BLOOM FILTER, ONE WILL BE CREATED (.bloom)
-p Bloom filter false positive rate (default -p 0.001, optional; increase to prevent memory allocation errors)
-x Turn off Bloom filter functionality (-x 1 = yes, default = no, optional)
-v Runs in verbose mode (-v 1 = yes, default = no, optional)

Error: Missing mandatory options -f and -s.
