I have three different transcriptome assemblies (Kmer 30,35 & 65) of one insect species. I want to compare transcriptome assemblies with reference insect sequence(from ensembl). I want to know how many genes show up in all kmer assemblies and between individual assemblies (i.e between 30 & 35, between 35 & 65). I would like to get idea to better way to compare to get list of genes. Any journal paper info regarding this will be helpful.

Hi Bioman1,
Can you share the purpose behind your proposed steps? Please look into whether CD-HIT is the right tool for you.

transcriptome assembly-comparative genomics
Thanks for reply. I have transcriptome assemblies with different treatments. I want to know which genes present in all treatments and what are all the genes that are absent in different treatments. I have tried tblastx ensembl (cDNA) insect sequence against transcriptome assemblies. Trying to find out highest coverage. Any suggestion?Comment

NGS has revolutionized clinical microbiology by offering new ways to identify and surveil pathogens without prior knowledge of the target. One popular approach is 16S rRNA and ITS amplicon sequencing, which targets specific microbial markers. But studies are increasingly incorporating shotgun metagenomics, a technique that sequences all DNA from a sample without targeting specific microbial markers. This approach allows more detailed taxonomic classification, detection...10-30-2026, 06:46 AM -
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...10-14-2026, 09:55 AM
