Hi
we are using the Velvet assembler plugin in Geneious Server and were able to generate ca. 50,000 contigs from ca. 120 Mio paired reads (Illumina).
Unfortunately, the Velvet Geneious plugin does no longer produce the .afg file, which should contain all the informations on how many individual reads were used to assemble each contig.
I'm wondering whether there is a tool available which could map individual reads to contigs to find out which 'transcript/contig' was abundabtly expressed and which was a rare transcript. In my project, a rough estimation would be sufficient, and a comparision with other RNAseq runs is not necessary (I thought about re-blasting each contig to the reads, but this is quite time-consuming and extraction the no. of hits is not that easy).
Unfortunately, my Linux knowledge is limited, Windows would be preferred :-(
Any suggestion out there?
Thank you for suggestions!
