NextDenovo: string graph-based de novo assembler for TGS long reads
NextDenovo is a string graph-based de novo assembler for TGS long reads. It uses a "correct-then-assemble" strategy similar to canu, but requires significantly less computing resources and storages. After assembly, the per-base error rate is about 97-98%, to further improve single base ...Tags: NextDenovo, NextOmics, string, graph-based, de novo, assembler, TGS, LongReads, assembly, long, reads
