---------------------------------------- IMPORTANT: Meraculous-2D has been superseded by the HipMer assembler, available here: https://sourceforge.net/projects/hipmer/ ----------------------------------------- Meraculous-2D is a whole genome assembler for NGS reads (Illumina) that is capable of assembling large, diploid genomes with modest computational requirements. Features include: - Efficient k-mer counting and deBruijn graph traversal - Two modes of handling of diploid...

Most current approaches analyze metagenomic data with the participation of reference genomes. However, novel microbial communities extend far beyond the coverage of reference databases and de novo metagenome assembly from complex microbial communities still remains a great challenge. Here we present a novel experimental and bioinformatic framework, metaSort, for effective construction of bacterial genomes from metagenomic samples. MetaSort provides a sorted mini-metagenome approach based on...

MaxInfo is an automated transcript discovery and quantification software designing for high-throughput RNA sequencing (RNA-seq). Assembling transcripts from reads are challenging because of the unpredictable uncertainties arising from completing full genome structure with very partial observations. MaxInfo tackles this problem by explicitly reducing the inherent uncertainties in the biological system caused by missing information.

SAT-Assembler is a scalable and accurate gene assembly tool for large-scale RNA-Seq and metagenomic data. It recovers genes from gene families of particular interest to biologists with high coverage, low chimera rate, and extremely low memory usage compared with exiting gene assembly tools. Moreover, it is naturally compatible with parallel computing platforms.

Latest Codes on GitHub: https://github.com/aquaskyline/SOAPdenovo-Trans SOAPdenovo-Trans is a de novo transcriptome assembler inherited from the SOAPdenovo2 framework, designed for assembling transcriptome with alternative splicing and different expression level. The assembler provides a more comprehensive way to construct the full-length transcript sets compare to SOAPdenovo2.

PASHA is a parallel short read assembler for large genomes using de Bruijn graphs. Taking advantage of both shared-memory multi-core CPUs and distributed-memory compute clusters, PASHA has demonstrated its potential to perform high-quality de-novo assembly of large genomes in reasonable time with modest computing resources. Our evaluation using three small real paired-end datasets shows that PASHA is able to produce better assemblies with comparable genome coverage and mis-assembly rates compared to three leading assemblers: Velvet, ABySS and SOAPdenovo. ...
