Hi all!
First, I have to say that I am a newbie in genome assembly. Please be kind
I have to deal with a project with Illumina Long Reads data (formerly Moleculo) and an expected genome of 1.2Gb. I was reading a little about but seems that there is no "easy solution" for that. All the recommendations/assemblers that I found are related with smaller and bacterial genomes. I have made some trials with MIRA but I think it will take months to finish with my current infrastructure. I also have pair-end HiSeq data and I have thought that maybe is possible to assembly this first with Abyss or SOAPdenovo and then use the long-reads in some way to fill gaps or something like that, but no clue how to do it.
I am open to any suggestion/recommendation!
Thanks in advance!
