    Unicycler

    I know Unicycler is specialised for bacterial genome assembling from hybrid of short and long reads.
    But, is Unicycler also good for bacterial genome assembling only from short reads such as from Illumina MiSeq

      Yes, because it acts as an optimiser for Spades.. which is perfectly happy with just short read data.

          Thak you very much!
          I have one set paired (2 x250) Illumnia MiSeq data from Salmonella.
          They look good by FastaQC
          I did Unicycler assembling but I did not get a whole genome.
          The longest contig is 446213 and totally I got 59 contigs longer than 500 bp.
          What can I do next?

              Some minION sequencing?

              There's nothing wrong with that number of contigs from a 2x250 MiSeq run.

                  Multiomic Liquid Biopsy: What DNA/RNA Panels Reveal That DNA Alone Can’t
                  by SEQadmin2



                  Tumors contain complex mixtures of cell populations that evolve in response to treatment and host-specific factors. Tissue biopsies provide only static snapshots of a tumor’s state. But what if we could follow that evolution over time using a minimally invasive technique?

                  Liquid biopsies can detect tumor-derived material circulating in the bloodstream, providing a way to study treatment response, detect emerging resistance, and discover new biomarkers. Circulating                  ...

                  New Genomics Technologies Take Aim at Long-Standing Limits
                  by SEQadmin2


                  Researchers using sequencing and genomics tools often have to make trade-offs. They can choose between speed or scale, short reads or long-range information, or targeted panels or a view of the whole transcriptome. New technologies that have been released this year are built to address those tough choices.

                  We asked six companies the same four questions to learn about their latest products. The new technologies bring a lot to the table, including rethinking sequencing                  ...
