  • Ploidy estimation or decision using pacbio sequel data

    Hi all.

    After finish assemble fungus genome from pacbio sequel using SMRT link or Falcon assembler, the genome size is twice as much as I expected.

    So, I want to get your advice or opinion for estimation or decision of ploidy of Fungal genome from Pacbio Sequel platform.

    Actually, the fungus genome was extracted using mycelia and spore.
    (I think this is a mistake that I made...)

    In my search, most of program for ploidy estimation are focus on short read such as illuminal Miseq and Hiseq.

    If there are good opinions or comments, and ideas please tell me about that.

    Best regards,
    YJ

    Hi there,
    I am interested in hearing how you ended up handling this. I suppose I do not have a definitive answer for your question, but any chance that you have a reference to compare to? If you take a closer look at your assembly, it would be interesting to see if you have "duplicated" chromosomes (provided your assembly allows you to make an assessment about chromosomes) as that I think could be indicative of a diploid (or polyploid, etc.) 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...
