	<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>

	<description><![CDATA[Download and install MUMmer
Align your assembly to a reference genome using nucmer (from MUMmer package)
$ nucmer -maxmatch -l 100 -c 500 REFERENCE.fa ASSEMBLY.fa -prefix OUT
Consult the MUMmer manual if you encounter problems

Optional: Gzip the delta file to speed up upload (usually 2-4X faster)
$ gzip OUT.delta
Then use the OUT.delta.gz file for upload.
Upload the .delta or delta.gz file (view example) to Assemblytics
Important: Use only contigs rather than scaffolds from the assembly. This will prevent false positives when the number of Ns in the scaffolded sequence does not match perfectly to the distance in the reference.

The unique sequence length required represents an anchor for determining if a sequence is unique enough to safely call variants from, which is an alternative to the mapping quality filter for read alignment.

	<description><![CDATA[<p>This sockeye&nbsp;software uses the Ensembl database project to import sequence and annotation information from several eukaryotic species. A user can additionally import their own custom sequence and annotation data. Individual annotation objects are displayed in Sockeye by using custom 3D models. Ensembl-derived and imported sequences can be analyzed by using a suite of multiple and pair-wise alignment algorithms. The results of these comparative analyses are also displayed in the 3D environment of Sockeye. By using the Java3D API to visualize genomic data in a 3D environment, we are able to compactly display cross-sequence comparisons. This provides the user with a novel platform for visualizing and comparing genomic feature organization.</p><p>Address of the bookmark: <a href="http://www.bcgsc.ca/platform/bioinfo/software/sockeye/releases/1.3" rel="nofollow">http://www.bcgsc.ca/platform/bioinfo/software/sockeye/releases/1.3</a></p>]]></description>

	<title><![CDATA[Referee: Genome assembly quality scores]]></title>
	<description><![CDATA[<p>Modern genome sequencing technologies provide a succint measure of quality at each position in every read, however all of this information is lost in the assembly process. Referee summarizes the quality information from the reads that map to a site in an assembled genome to calculate a quality score for each position in the genome assembly.</p>
<p>We accomplish this by first calculating genotype likelihoods for every site. For a given site in a diploid genome, there are 10 possible genotypes (AA, AC, AG, AT, CC, CG, CT, GG, GT, TT). Referee takes as input the genotype likelihoods calculated for all 10 genotypes given the called reference base at each position.</p>
<h3>Referee is a program to calculate a quality score for every position in a genome assembly. This allows for easy filtering of low quality sites for any downstream analysis.</h3>

<p>NextDenovo contains two core modules: NextCorrect and NextGraph.
