Get data

We will use the same Illumina data as we used above:

• illumina_R1.fastq.gz: the Illumina forward reads
• illumina_R2.fastq.gz: the Illumina reverse reads

Assemble

Run Spades:

spades.py -1 illumina_R1.fastq.gz -2 illumina_R2.fastq.gz --careful --cov-cutoff auto -o spades_assembly_all_illumina

• -1 is input file of forward reads
• -2 is input file of reverse reads
• --careful minimizes mismatches and short indels
• --cov-cutoff auto computes the coverage threshold (rather than the default setting, “off”)
• -o is the output directory

Results

Move into the output directory and look at the contigs:

infoseq contigs.fasta

MitoFinder: Mitofinder is a pipeline to assemble mitochondrial genomes and annotate mitochondrial genes from trimmed read sequencing data.

MitoHiFi: a python pipeline for mitochondrial genome assembly from PacBio high fidelity reads

MITObim: MITObim is a tool specifically developed for the iterative assembly of mitochondrial genomes. It starts with a reference mitogenome and iteratively refines the assembly using the read data.

MITOS: MITOS is a web-based platform that provides a pipeline for annotating mitochondrial genomes. It integrates multiple software tools for assembly, annotation, and visualization of mitogenomes.

MIRA: MIRA (Mimicking Intelligent Read Assembly) is a versatile genome assembly tool that can be used for mitochondrial genome assembly. It supports various sequencing technologies and allows for reference-based or de novo assembly.

NOVOPlasty: NOVOPlasty is a user-friendly tool designed for de novo assembly of organelle genomes, including mitochondria. It utilizes a seed-and-extend algorithm and is suitable for both short-read and long-read data.

MITOS2: MITOS2 is an updated version of the MITOS pipeline, which automates the annotation of mitochondrial genomes. It provides improved accuracy and additional features for mitochondrial genome analysis.

GetOrganelle: While primarily designed for chloroplast genome assembly, GetOrganelle can also be used for mitochondrial genome assembly. It is particularly useful for dealing with high-throughput sequencing data.

SPAdes: SPAdes (St. Petersburg genome assembler) is a versatile genome assembly tool that can be employed for mitochondrial genome assembly, especially when dealing with complex datasets that may contain nuclear mitochondrial DNA sequences (numts).

IDBA-UD: IDBA-UD (Iterative De Bruijn Graph De Novo Assembler) is another de novo assembly tool that can be used for mitochondrial genome assembly, especially in cases with relatively low coverage.

Velvet: Velvet is a de novo assembly tool that can be applied to mitochondrial genome assembly, especially when working with short-read data.

When selecting a mitochondrial genome assembly tool, it's important to consider the specific characteristics of your sequencing data, such as read length and coverage, as well as the complexity of the mitochondrial genome. Additionally, some tools are better suited for specific organisms or research objectives, so choosing the right tool will depend on your particular project requirements.

For those familiar with Trellis Display, faceting in ggplot, or the notion of small multiples, Trelliscope provides a scalable way to break a set of data into pieces, apply a plot method to each piece, and then arrange those plots in a grid and interactively sort, filter, and query panels of the display based on metrics of interest. With Trelliscope, we are able to create multipanel displays on data with a very large number of subsets and view them in an interactive and meaningful way.

What is PhyloHerb: PhyloHerb is a wrapper program to process genome skimming data collected from plant materials. The outcomes include the plastid genome (plastome) assemblies, mitochondrial genome assemblies, nuclear ribosomal DNAs (NTS+ETS+18S+ITS1+5.8S+ITS2+28S), alignments of gene and intergenic regions, and a species tree. It is designed to be a high throughput program dealing with lower quality data. Examples include low-coverage (5x cpDNA) plastome phylogeny, recycling plastid genes from target enrichment data, retrieving low-copy nuclear genes from medium coverage (5x nucDNA) genome skimming.
