Abstract:Genome assembly and annotation using short-paired reads is challenging for eukaryotic organisms due to their large size, variable ploidy and large number of repetitive elements. However, the use of single-molecule long reads improves assembly quality (completeness and contiguity), but haplotype duplications still pose assembly challenges. To address the effect of read length on genome assembly quality, gene prediction and annotation, we compared genome assemblers and sequencing technologies with four strains o… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
