	<description><![CDATA[<p dir="auto">SqueezeMeta is a full automatic pipeline for metagenomics/metatranscriptomics, covering all steps of the analysis. SqueezeMeta includes multi-metagenome support allowing the co-assembly of related metagenomes and the retrieval of individual genomes via binning procedures. Thus, SqueezeMeta features several unique characteristics:</p>
<ol dir="auto">
<li>Co-assembly procedure with read mapping for estimation of the abundances of genes in each metagenome</li>
<li>Co-assembly of a large number of metagenomes via merging of individual metagenomes</li>
<li>Includes binning and bin checking, for retrieving individual genomes</li>
<li>The results are stored in a database, where they can be easily exported and shared, and can be inspected anywhere using a web interface.</li>
<li>Internal checks for the assembly and binning steps inform about the consistency of contigs and bins, allowing to spot potential chimeras.</li>
<li>Metatranscriptomic support via mapping of cDNA reads against reference metagenomes</li>

<p>The next-generation sequencing included whole genome sequencing(WGS), transcriptome sequencing (whole cDNA sequencing, RNA-seq), digital gene expression sequencing (Tag-Seq), ChIP-Seq, and so on. And there are many sequencing platform to generate sequece, as well know Sanger/ABi(the frist generation), Solexa/illumina, SOLiD/ABi, 454/Roche. But thier sequence format is different, also they have different error type. High quality data is very important for further analysis or data mining. There are many pipeline for raw sequence quality analysis and control with few of process for reporting reads quality statistical details, trimming, filtering, and error correction.

The overlap graph of reads was simplified by removing transitive edges and trimming short branches. Unitigs were generated based on minimum cost flow analysis of the overlap graph and then merged to contigs and scaffolds using mate-pair information. In comparison with three de Bruijn graph assemblers (SOAPdenovo, IDBA-UD and MetaVelvet), Omega provided comparable overall performance on a HiSeq 100-bp dataset and superior performance on a MiSeq 300-bp dataset. In comparison with Celera on the MiSeq dataset, Omega provided more continuous assemblies overall using a fraction of the computing time of existing overlap-layout-consensus assemblers. This indicates Omega can more efficiently assemble longer Illumina reads, and at deeper coverage, for metagenomic datasets.</span></p><p>Address of the bookmark: <a href="http://omega.omicsbio.org/" rel="nofollow">http://omega.omicsbio.org/</a></p>]]></description>

	<title><![CDATA[miniasm: very fast OLC-based de novo assembler for noisy long reads]]></title>
	<description><![CDATA[<p>Miniasm is a very fast OLC-based&nbsp;<em>de novo</em>&nbsp;assembler for noisy long reads. It takes all-vs-all read self-mappings (typically by&nbsp;<a href="https://github.com/lh3/minimap">minimap</a>) as input and outputs an assembly graph in the&nbsp;<a href="https://github.com/pmelsted/GFA-spec/blob/master/GFA-spec.md">GFA</a>&nbsp;format. Different from mainstream assemblers, miniasm does not have a consensus step. It simply concatenates pieces of read sequences to generate the final&nbsp;<a href="http://wgs-assembler.sourceforge.net/wiki/index.php/Celera_Assembler_Terminology">unitig</a>&nbsp;sequences. Thus the per-base error rate is similar to the raw input reads.</p>
<p>So far miniasm is in early development stage. It has only been tested on a dozen of PacBio and Oxford Nanopore (ONT) bacterial data sets. Including the mapping step, it takes about 3 minutes to assemble a bacterial genome. Under the default setting, miniasm assembles 9 out of 12 PacBio datasets and 3 out of 4 ONT datasets into a single contig. The 12 PacBio data sets are&nbsp;<a href="https://github.com/PacificBiosciences/DevNet/wiki/E.-coli-Bacterial-Assembly">PacBio E. coli sample</a>,&nbsp;<a href="http://www.ebi.ac.uk/ena/data/view/ERS473430">ERS473430</a>,&nbsp;<a href="http://www.ebi.ac.uk/ena/data/view/ERS544009">ERS544009</a>,&nbsp;<a href="http://www.ebi.ac.uk/ena/data/view/ERS554120">ERS554120</a>,&nbsp;<a href="http://www.ebi.ac.uk/ena/data/view/ERS605484">ERS605484</a>,&nbsp;<a href="http://www.ebi.ac.uk/ena/data/view/ERS617393">ERS617393</a>,&nbsp;<a href="http://www.ebi.ac.uk/ena/data/view/ERS646601">ERS646601</a>,&nbsp;<a href="http://www.ebi.ac.uk/ena/data/view/ERS659581">ERS659581</a>,&nbsp;<a href="http://www.ebi.ac.uk/ena/data/view/ERS670327">ERS670327</a>,&nbsp;<a href="http://www.ebi.ac.uk/ena/data/view/ERS685285">ERS685285</a>,&nbsp;<a href="http://www.ebi.ac.uk/ena/data/view/ERS743109">ERS743109</a>&nbsp;and a&nbsp;<a href="https://github.com/PacificBiosciences/DevNet/wiki/E.-coli-20kb-Size-Selected-Library-with-P6-C4/ce0533c1d2a957488594f0b29da61ffa3e4627e8">deprecated PacBio E. coli data set</a>. ONT data are acquired from the&nbsp;<a href="http://lab.loman.net/2015/09/24/first-sqk-map-006-experiment/">Loman Lab</a>.</p>
<p>For a&nbsp;<em>C. elegans</em>&nbsp;<a href="https://github.com/PacificBiosciences/DevNet/wiki/C.-elegans-data-set">PacBio data set</a>&nbsp;(only 40X are used, not the whole dataset), miniasm finishes the assembly, including reads overlapping, in ~10 minutes with 16 CPUs. The total assembly size is 105Mb; the N50 is 1.94Mb. In comparison, the&nbsp;<a href="https://github.com/PacificBiosciences/Bioinformatics-Training/wiki/HGAP">HGAP3</a>produces a 104Mb assembly with N50 1.61Mb.&nbsp;<a href="http://lh3lh3.users.sourceforge.net/download/ce-miniasm.png">This dotter plot</a>&nbsp;gives a global view of the miniasm assembly (on the X axis) and the HGAP3 assembly (on Y). They are broadly comparable. Of course, the HGAP3 consensus sequences are much more accurate. In addition, on the whole data set (assembled in ~30 min), the miniasm N50 is reduced to 1.79Mb. Miniasm still needs improvements.</p>
<p>Miniasm confirms that at least for high-coverage bacterial genomes, it is possible to generate long contigs from raw PacBio or ONT reads without error correction. It also shows that&nbsp;<a href="https://github.com/lh3/minimap">minimap</a>&nbsp;can be used as a read overlapper, even though it is probably not as sensitive as the more sophisticated overlapers such as&nbsp;<a href="https://github.com/marbl/MHAP">MHAP</a>&nbsp;and&nbsp;<a href="https://github.com/thegenemyers/DALIGNER">DALIGNER</a>. Coupled with long-read error correctors and consensus tools, miniasm may also be useful to produce high-quality assemblies.</p>
<p>Minimap and miniasm are ultrafast tools for (i) mapping and (ii) assembly. Designed for long, noisy reads, they do not have a correction or consensus step, and therefore the resulting assemblies are contiguous (i.e. long) but very noisy (i.e. full of errors)</p>

Complex operations such as the separation of the implicit instances of repeats and the merging of linear paths can be performed.

	<description><![CDATA[<p>MECAT is an ultra-fast Mapping, Error Correction and de novo Assembly Tools for single molecula sequencing (SMRT) reads. MECAT employs novel alignment and error correction algorithms that are much more efficient than the state of art of aligners and error correction tools.

For example, on a 32-thread computer with 2.0 GHz CPU , MECAT takes 9.5 days to assemble a human genome based on 54x SMRT data, which is 40 times faster than the current&nbsp;<a href="http://cbcb.umd.edu/software/pbcr/mhap/">PBcR-Mhap pipeline</a>.
