GenomeMapper: Simultaneous alignment of short reads against multiple genomes

Jit — Fri, 25 May 2018 09:29:44 -0500

GenomeMapper is a short read mapping tool designed for accurate read alignments. It quickly aligns millions of reads either with ungapped or gapped alignments. It can be used to align against multiple genomes simulanteously or against a single reference. If you are unsure which one is the appropriate GenomeMapper, you might want to use the latter https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC2768987/

BASE: a practical de novo assembler for large genomes using long NGS reads

Rahul Nayak — Fri, 19 Oct 2018 07:25:21 -0500

new de novo assembler called BASE. It enhances the classic seed-extension approach by indexing the reads efficiently to generate adaptive seeds that have high probability to appear uniquely in the genome. Such seeds form the basis for BASE to build extension trees and then to use reverse validation to remove the branches based on read coverage and paired-end information, resulting in high-quality consensus sequences of reads sharing the seeds. Such consensus sequences are then extended to contigs.

CSA: A high-throughput chromosome-scale assembly pipeline for vertebrate genomes

Jit — Wed, 10 Mar 2021 06:13:49 -0600

The pipeline can use information from scaffolded assemblies (for example from HiC or 10X Genomics), or even from diverged (~65-100 Mya) reference genomes for ordering the contigs and thus support the assembly process. This typically results in improved contig N50 when compared to current state of the art methods.

For smaller vertebrate genomes (~1 Gbp) chromosome scale assemblies can be achieved within 12h on high-end Desktop computers (Intel i7, 12 CPU threads, 128 GB RAM). Larger mammalian genomes (~3Gbp) can be processed within 15-18 h on server equipment (Xeon, 96 CPU threads, 1TB RAM).
