We have a eukaryotic diploid genome assembled and scaffolded using ALLPATHS-LG. In addition, we have a linkage map generated from iso-crossing individuals and performing reduced-representation (GBS) sequencing. We have evidence from the linkage map that can place and order our scaffolds, or at times nest a scaffold within a scaffold gap of a larger scaffold, but it would be a lot of work to manual review these joins and investigate mate-pair evidence across the entire genome. I was wondering if there was any existing pipelines or software programs that generate superscaffolded assemblies based off of a mix of linkage map information and mate-pair information. I have seen several papers, but their methods are either not clearly described, or are very manual in nature, but it is likely I could be missing something.

While isolating and preparing single cells for sequencing was historically the bottleneck, recent technological advancements have shifted the challenge to data analysis. This highlights the rapidly evolving nature of single-cell sequencing. The inherent complexity of single-cell analysis has intensified with the surge in data volume and the incorporation of diverse and more complex datasets. This article explores the challenges in analysis, examines common pitfalls, offers...Yesterday, 07:15 AM -
