  • Who is the best way to align/assemble to a reference?

    There are so many software to mapping the solexa/SOLid reads to reference. Which is the best?

    If you wont to align against a reference sequence more or less all the software are pretty good. They differ a bit from what concern speed and sensitivity but more or less are similar. In my lab we use our own tool that is more sensitive then ELAND and it has performances similar to BOWTIE an SOAP.

    For what concern assembly the best software is VELVET. I use also EULER-SR that is some cases perform better then VELVET.
    Also EDANA is pretty good but VELVET and EULER are better...

      As a biased alignment tool author, I would suggest BFAST for indels and sensitivity.

        Thanks. When I assembled my data, I found the velvet was pretty good. And, I also tried to extend the sequences by different aligment. I would like to find more software with various ideas to help me finish my genome.

          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...
