Sorry, I'm new in the field and this may seem like a silly question but I need your help.
How do polyploid genomes (triploid, tetraploid, .... ) are assembled? Which assembler is best to use? Does each subgenome is assembled alone? If yes, then can we use haploid assemblers instead, and then collapse them together?
I asked this because I saw a number of diploid assemblers (such as FALCON) but none for triploid or other polyploids genome.
Thanks in advance.
