Hi everyone,
I have RNA-seq data from a non-model organism without genome sequence and right now I`m trying to use TopHat/Cufflinks for gene expression analysis. The problem is, from what I read so far I need a reference genome for the alignment and I don`t have one, at least for my species. It`s still viable to use tophat, or I should seek another software? Any hints?
Thank you.
