Hello,
This might be a stupid question.
We are currently working on a ~5M bacterial genome assembly. Our reads data is ~8X coverage, 454 sequencing. The coverage is kind of low. So we used re-guided assembly. Now we found there were still lots of gaps (~500).
If we want to fill in these gaps, should we resequencing the whole genome on 454? It still costs us too much. Does anybody have any other suggestions?
Thank you very much.
