    Long Reads Assembly

    hello,

    Do you have any references for assembling long reads?
    I searched but I wanted to know if there are other algorithms assemblies of long reads.

    thank you friends

    The first question is, what do you mean with long reads? 600 bp Illumina MiSeq? Sanger sequences? PacBio reads? And the second is, what are the algorithms you already found? Otherwise we cannot tell what algorithm would be another possibility.

      thank you for your reply.
      I search the algorithms assembling of long reads with all technologies of sequencing (Sanger, PacBio ...). I am looking for references (articles, theses, ...).
      thank you for your help.

        I guess the algorithm you already found is Overlap Layout Consensus. The first algorithms for assembly were improvements of basic sequence alignment, since the first sanger reads could be aligned manually and the real need for assembling computationally started with shotgun sequencing and the higher amount of data and shorter reads this produced. The need to assemble long reads is now coming back, but so far mainly existing tools have been adapted to work with long reads. Overlap Layout Consensus has been originally used for Sanger reads, so it is the obvious one to mention. String graph assembly is also working well for long reads, because it uses the connectivity information of a read without splitting it up like a de-bruijn based assembler would. I am not aware of an algorithm that is exclusively meant to be used with long reads, but I hope I could give you some topics to look into.

              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...
