Hi,
bbmerge seems to use by default the ratiomode as follows:
ratiomode=t Newer algorithm. Slower, but higher merge rate.
Much better for long overlaps and high error rates.
maxratio=0.09 Max error rate; higher increases merge rate.
I have a couple of question. Is there any documentation on how this works ??? Also maxratio=0.09 means an error rate of 9% per base ??? I guess this is for pacbio reads ?? short illumina reads should still work with a maxratio of 0.01 ?
thanks for the update
