sourceforge.net - Rainbow is developed to provide an ultra-fast and memory-efficient solution to clustering and assembling short reads produced by RAD-seq. First, Rainbow clusters reads using a spaced seed method. Then, Rainbow implements a heterozygote calling like...

github.com - KAD is designed for evaluating the accuracy of nucleotide base quality of genome assemblies. Briefly, abundance of k-mers are quantified for both sequencing reads and assembly sequences. Comparison of the two values results in a single value per...

github.com - AlignGraph2 is the second version of AlignGraph for PacBio long reads. It extends and refines contigs assembled from the long reads with a published genome similar to the sequencing genome. More...

hal.archives-ouvertes.fr - Pros and cons of HairSplitter Limitations of HairSplitter: Not very fast: it re-polishes the whole assembly  Limited in the number of haplotypes Strengths of HairSplitter: Very modular, can be used with any assembler Naive: makes no...

github.com - HECIL—Hybrid Error Correction with Iterative Learning—a hybrid error correction framework that determines a correction policy for erroneous long reads, based on optimal combinations of decision weights obtained from short read...

Like in case of plant genomes where nature of genome is too complex and huge in size to accomplish complete de novo assembly by current sequencing technology. What would be alternate solution? Can we live in reference free world?

Genome Browser is the platform/database used for searching and retreiving sequences and annotation of genomes belong to various eukaryotes, prokaryotes, etc. Following are the weblink for different available...
