A few recommendations for assembling Illumina reads with euler-sr:
1. Pre-filter for A-saturated reads:
$EUSRC/assembly/$MACHTYPE/filterIllumina reads.fasta reads.fasta.filt
2. Put all reads to assemble into one file. Every fasta title should be unique in this file.
3. If your reads are paired (and they are stored in a file reads.fasta), check the reads.fasta.mates to see if the regular expressions used to match reads worked. If no reads were matched, all entries will be "-1 -1".
4. Assembly quality varies with the following:
1. error rate
2. repeat content of the genome
3. coverage
To check to see if you had low coverage, or a very high error rate that fragmented the genome, run the graph summary program:
$EUSRC/assembly/$MACHTYPE/printGraphSummary matetransformed/reads.fasta -sources
This will print all the lengths of contigs that are fragmented due to low coverage or sequencing errors (probably low coverage). If this high relative to the number of contigs in the assembly, either use a smaller vertex size for assembly, or run more reads.

Despite advancements in sequencing platforms and related sample preparation technologies, certain sample types continue to present significant challenges that can compromise sequencing results. Pedro Echave, Senior Manager of the Global Business Segment at Revvity, explained that the success of a sequencing experiment ultimately depends on the amount and integrity of the nucleic acid template (RNA or DNA) obtained from a sample. “The better the quality of the nucleic acid isolated...-
