    PBJelly keeps crashing on me. Previous jobs (with potentially poor Illumina assemblies) produced poor results. That said I do have a current job that has been running for three days without crashing so I am hoping for the best. That job is a small variant on jobs that have crashed on me but maybe I got everything right this time. As is typical for bioinformatics program the troubleshooting messages are not very helpful.

    I do realize that PBJelly is newer than AHA but one has to do with what actually runs.

    Looks like you just removed the AHA option from the web page I posted above. Your first edit of that page.


    While I haven't used MaSrRCA in a while it seems to me that it is basically doing an Illumina assembly and then layering -- scaffolding, gap-filling, whatever -- on top of the Illumina assembly. Same category


    I point out that while PacBio only assembly is nice it doesn't really work for a 1GB genome unless one has a lot of $$$.

      I removed AHA, as I cannnot think of any situation for which I would recommend it. It doesn't work for large genomes (>200Mb), and for smaller genomes if you have enough data to use it you have more than enough to try hybrid assembly, or even low coverage denovo PacBio (>25x).
      I would consider scaffolding and resolving ambiguity during assembly to be two different approaches.
      Cost for a 1Gb genome is probably not as much as you think, and if you factor in analysis time, it can be competitive. A recent example avian genome, great library, 60 SMRT Cells, from raw data to finished genome ~2 days, >15Mb contig N50. Obviously not everything works out quite so well, but 1Gb genomes are becoming routine.

        The Falcon assembler is designed for diploid assembly, for higher ploidy it will depend on the nature of plody inbred, allotetraploid etc.

          Recent Advances in Sequencing Analysis Tools
          by seqadmin


          The sequencing world is rapidly changing due to declining costs, enhanced accuracies, and the advent of newer, cutting-edge instruments. Equally important to these developments are improvements in sequencing analysis, a process that converts vast amounts of raw data into a comprehensible and meaningful form. This complex task requires expertise and the right analysis tools. In this article, we highlight the progress and innovation in sequencing analysis by reviewing several of the...

          Essential Discoveries and Tools in Epitranscriptomics
          by seqadmin




          The field of epigenetics has traditionally concentrated more on DNA and how changes like methylation and phosphorylation of histones impact gene expression and regulation. However, our increased understanding of RNA modifications and their importance in cellular processes has led to a rise in epitranscriptomics research. “Epitranscriptomics brings together the concepts of epigenetics and gene expression,” explained Adrien Leger, PhD, Principal Research Scientist...
