    Abyss merge multiple assemblies

    Hi all.

    I've made several de novo genome assemblies using Abyss, for my libraries i have used 25,30,35,40,45,50,55,60,65 as kmer value. The best assembly that I've got is using 55 as kmer value.

    I have tried to merge the assemblies using minimus2 pipeline, but it took several days making overlapping step (20 days) and never ends!, I've seen that this pipeline runs in one core and don't have option for use multiple cores. I followed this tutorial: http://ged.msu.edu/angus/metag-assem...et-multik.html

    The question is: There is another strategy or tool to integrate these assemblies?

    Which assemblies are you trying to merge? I'm confused because you say your best assembly is with 55 kmer. Why not just stick with that? That's what typically done.

    FYI, on the page above it says
    We’re currently using the minimus2 approach, because we think it does a decent job, but we can’t really justify it to you yet .
    Minimus and Velvet work best with small genomes. For large genomes, I've had Minimus run fine with merging two assemblies.

      Pathogen Surveillance with Advanced Genomic Tools
      by seqadmin




      The COVID-19 pandemic highlighted the need for proactive pathogen surveillance systems. As ongoing threats like avian influenza and newly emerging infections continue to pose risks, researchers are working to improve how quickly and accurately pathogens can be identified and tracked. In a recent SEQanswers webinar, two experts discussed how next-generation sequencing (NGS) and machine learning are shaping efforts to monitor viral variation and trace the origins of infectious...

      New Genomics Tools and Methods Shared at AGBT 2025
      by seqadmin


      This year’s Advances in Genome Biology and Technology (AGBT) General Meeting commemorated the 25th anniversary of the event at its original venue on Marco Island, Florida. While this year’s event didn’t include high-profile musical performances, the industry announcements and cutting-edge research still drew the attention of leading scientists.

      The Headliner
      The biggest announcement was Roche stepping back into the sequencing platform market. In the years since...
