  • Soap de novo trans parameters

    Hi all,

    I just recently trying to use SOAP denovo-trans for de novo assembly of a non-model species. I did try to run SOAP-trans but i'm kind of confuse about the options in the config file.
    ---------------
    3) asm_flags
    This indicator decides in which part(s) the reads are used. It takes value 1(only contig assembly), 2 (only scaffold assembly), 3(both contig and scaffold assembly).
    ---------------

    Which to choose in my case ? I have single end reads file, with read length ranging from 30-300

    Any suggestions

    Without paired end reads you will only be able to construct contigs (not scaffolds). You can either specify 1 or 3.

      Thanks for the answer.

      That's what i was doubt about, what if i specify 3 ? What will the program behave, will it just omit scaffoldings step ?

        Yes the scaffolding step will happen or not, but it will only look at zero paired ends so I expect it should not take long to run.

          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...
