Hello,
I'm using Velvet assembler and I've a little doubt.
After reading Velvet documentation I know that one gap in output assembly is represented by minimum of 10 N's. And that the number of N's represent the estimated gap length.
However I can't find information about how does Velvet treat ambiguous calls. I would like to know how Velvet represents the ambiguous calls in output contigs.fa
Does Velvet replace ambiguous calls with a random nucleotide (A, C, T or G)?
Thank you very much.
