	<title><![CDATA[Filtlong: quality filtering tool for long reads]]></title>
	<description><![CDATA[<p>Filtlong is a tool for filtering long reads by quality. It can take a set of long reads and produce a smaller, better subset. It uses both read length (longer is better) and read identity (higher is better) when choosing which reads pass the filter.</p>
<p>Filtlong builds into a stand-alone executable:</p>
<pre><code>git clone https://github.com/rrwick/Filtlong.git
cd Filtlong
make -j
bin/filtlong -h
</code></pre><p>Address of the bookmark: <a href="https://github.com/rrwick/Filtlong" rel="nofollow">https://github.com/rrwick/Filtlong</a></p>]]></description>

	<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>

	<description><![CDATA[<p><strong>Maq</strong>&nbsp;stands for&nbsp;<em>Mapping and Assembly with Quality</em>&nbsp;It builds assembly by mapping short reads to reference sequences. Maq is a project hosted by&nbsp;<a href="http://sourceforge.net/">SourceForge.net</a>. The project page is available at<a href="http://sourceforge.net/projects/maq/">http://sourceforge.net/projects/maq/</a>. Maq is previously known as mapass2.</p>
<h2>Run Maq Now</h2>
<p>Follow these steps to try Maq. All you need is a reference sequence file in the FASTA format.</p>
<ol>
<li>Prepare a reference sequence (ref.fasta). Better a bacterial genome.</li>
<li>Download maq, maq-data and maqview at the&nbsp;<a href="http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=191815">download page</a>.</li>
<li>Copy maq, maq.pl and maq_eval.pl to the $PATH or to the same directory.</li>
<li>Simulate diploid reference and read sequences, map reads, call variants and evaluate the results in one go:
<pre>maq.pl demo ref.fasta calib-30.dat
</pre>
where&nbsp;<em>calib-30.dat</em>&nbsp;is contained in maq-data.</li>
<li>View the alignment:
<pre>cd maqdemo/easyrun;
maqindex -i -c consensus.cns all.map;
maqview -c consensus.cns all.map</pre>
</li>
</ol>
<p><strong>Even for advanced maq users, running `maq.pl demo' is recommended. You may find something helpful.</strong></p><p>Address of the bookmark: <a href="http://maq.sourceforge.net" rel="nofollow">http://maq.sourceforge.net</a></p>]]></description>

	<title><![CDATA[Meraculous: De Novo Genome Assembly with Short Paired-End Reads]]></title>
	<description><![CDATA[<p><span>We describe a new algorithm, meraculous, for whole genome assembly of deep paired-end short reads, and apply it to the assembly of a dataset of paired 75-bp Illumina reads derived from the 15.4 megabase genome of the haploid yeast&nbsp;</span><em>Pichia stipitis</em><span>. More than 95% of the genome is recovered, with no errors; half the assembled sequence is in contigs longer than 101 kilobases and in scaffolds longer than 269 kilobases. Incorporating fosmid ends recovers entire chromosomes. Meraculous relies on an efficient and conservative traversal of the subgraph of the&nbsp;</span><em>k</em><span>-mer (deBruijn) graph of oligonucleotides with unique high quality extensions in the dataset, avoiding an explicit error correction step as used in other short-read assemblers. A novel memory-efficient hashing scheme is introduced. The resulting contigs are ordered and oriented using paired reads separated by &sim;280 bp or &sim;3.2 kbp, and many gaps between contigs can be closed using paired-end placements. Practical issues with the dataset are described, and prospects for assembling larger genomes are discussed.</span></p><p>Address of the bookmark: <a href="https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3158087/" rel="nofollow">https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3158087/</a></p>]]></description>
