Can any one tell how to set the expected coverege parameter in velvet denovo assembly , if i have the illumina reads of 0.1x cov.

Take a look at section 5.2 and 5.3 of the velvet manual:
5.2 Choice of a coverage cutoff (14)
5.3 Determining the expected coverage (16)--

hi ,thanks for your reply...From the manual it is stated that with reference to the graph the expected cov is calculated as 14x ,so what i understood is we should take the value of the highest peak.am I right ?Comment

You could always just use "-cov_cutoff auto" (take a look at the manual), but I prefer to avoid magic when possible.
I would make the graph and use it as a starting point, although I recommend then tweaking the parameters and seeing what you get (especially do'able since it is done in the second step, velvetg).--

Tumors contain complex mixtures of cell populations that evolve in response to treatment and host-specific factors. Tissue biopsies provide only static snapshots of a tumor’s state. But what if we could follow that evolution over time using a minimally invasive technique?
Liquid biopsies can detect tumor-derived material circulating in the bloodstream, providing a way to study treatment response, detect emerging resistance, and discover new biomarkers. Circulating...Yesterday, 09:55 AM -
Researchers using sequencing and genomics tools often have to make trade-offs. They can choose between speed or scale, short reads or long-range information, or targeted panels or a view of the whole transcriptome. New technologies that have been released this year are built to address those tough choices.
We asked six companies the same four questions to learn about their latest products. The new technologies bring a lot to the table, including rethinking sequencing...
