	<description><![CDATA[<p><span>Monitoring the progress of DNA molecules through a membrane pore has been postulated as a method for sequencing DNA for several decades. Recently, a nanopore-based sequencing instrument, the Oxford Nanopore MinION, has become available that we used for sequencing the S. cerevisiae genome. To make use of these data, we developed a novel open-source hybrid error correction algorithm Nanocorr (</span><a href="https://github.com/jgurtowski/nanocorr">https://github.com/jgurtowski/nanocorr</a><span>) specifically for Oxford Nanopore reads, as existing packages were incapable of assembling the long read lengths (5-50kbp) at such high error rate (between ~5 and 40% error). With this new method we were able to perform a hybrid error correction of the nanopore reads using complementary MiSeq data and produce a de novo assembly that is highly contiguous and accurate: the contig N50 length is more than ten-times greater than an Illumina-only assembly (678kb versus 59.9kbp), and has greater than 99.88% consensus identity when compared to the reference. Furthermore, the assembly with the long nanopore reads presents a much more complete representation of the features of the genome and correctly assembles gene cassettes, rRNAs, transposable elements, and other genomic features that were almost entirely absent in the Illumina-only assembly.</span></p><p>Address of the bookmark: <a href="http://schatzlab.cshl.edu/data/nanocorr/" rel="nofollow">http://schatzlab.cshl.edu/data/nanocorr/</a></p>]]></description>

	<title><![CDATA[Genome assembly stats plotting]]></title>
	<description><![CDATA[<p>A&nbsp;<em>de novo</em>&nbsp;genome assembly can be summarised b</p>
<p>y a number of metrics, including:</p>
<ul>
<li>Overall assembly length</li>
<li>Number of scaffolds/contigs</li>
<li>Length of longest scaffold/contig</li>
<li>Scaffold/contig N50 and N90Assembly base composition, in particular percentage GC and percentage Ns</li>
<li>CEGMA completeness</li>
<li>Scaffold/contig length/count distribution</li>
</ul>
<p>assembly-stats supports two widely used presentations of these values, tabular and cumulative length plots, and introduces an additional circular plot that summarises most commonly used assembly metrics in a single visualisation. Each of these presentations is generated using javascript from a common (JSON) data structure, allowing toggling between alternative views, and each can be applied to a single or multiple assemblies to allow direct comparison of alternate assemblies.</p>
<p>Tabular presentation allows direct comparison of exact values between assemblies, the limitations of this approach lie in the necessary omission of distributions and the challenge of interpreting ratios of values that may vary by several orders of magnitude.</p><p>Address of the bookmark: <a href="https://github.com/rjchallis/assembly-stats" rel="nofollow">https://github.com/rjchallis/assembly-stats</a></p>]]></description>

	<title><![CDATA[CGView - Circular Genome Viewer]]></title>
	<description><![CDATA[CGView is a Java package for generating high quality, zoomable maps of circular genomes. Its primary purpose is to serve as a component of sequence annotation pipelines, as a means of generating visual output suitable for the web. Feature information and rendering options are supplied to the program using an XML file, a tab delimited file, or an NCBI ptt file. CGView converts the input into a graphical map (PNG, JPG, or Scalable Vector Graphics format), complete with labels, a title, legends, and footnotes. In addition to the default full view map, the program can generate a series of hyperlinked maps showing expanded views. The linked maps can be explored using any web browser, allowing rapid genome browsing, and facilitating data sharing. The feature labels in maps can be hyperlinked to external resources, allowing CGView maps to be integrated with existing web site content or databases. For examples of the various output types, see the CGView gallery.
