  • Beg for latest version of SOAPdenovo correction tool before assembly

    Hi guys,
    In AllPath-LG paper, “High-quality draft assemblies of mammalian genomes from massively parallel sequence data”, supplemental information, page4, it mentions
    “Next read correction was done on the fragment pair reads in two steps via the modules KmerFreq and Corrector. The SOAP authors provided new error correction code along with the exact parameters to use:”
    kmer_freq_pfile reads.in -k 17 -f 1 -t 48 -p mouse
    correct_error_pread mouse.freq.gz reads.in -k 17 -x 8 -r 50 -l
    10 -c 5 -p mouse -f 1 -j 1 -t 48

    But on the BGI official web, there is only version 1.00 which was published in 2009. I had tried to mail to [email protected], but never succeed. Could SOAP authors or anyone kindly send the latest version of error correction tool to me? My email is [email protected], thank you very much!

    BTW, I have a question about error correction tool version 1.00, about Corrector module:
    -k [int] start of kmer frequence cutoff [default 5]
    -e [int] end of kmer frequence cutoff [default 5]
    Does “start of kmer frequence cutoff [default 5]” means low frequency (<5) 17 mers were edited to the closely similar high-frequency 17- mers? What does “end of kmer frequence cutoff [default 5]” means?

    Thanks in advance!
    Best,
    Josh

    Perhaps they were referring to the 1.05 release in Feb 2011 rather than the 1.04 release that was released in December 2009?

      Thank you for your reply. I mean the additional reads Correction module, rathaer than SOAPdenovo software. I have SOAPdenovo 1.05 version alredy.

        Strategies for Sequencing Challenging Samples
        by seqadmin


        Despite advancements in sequencing platforms and related sample preparation technologies, certain sample types continue to present significant challenges that can compromise sequencing results. Pedro Echave, Senior Manager of the Global Business Segment at Revvity, explained that the success of a sequencing experiment ultimately depends on the amount and integrity of the nucleic acid template (RNA or DNA) obtained from a sample. “The better the quality of the nucleic acid isolated...
