  • Relationship coverage/k-mer

    I tried to test an assembly with different k-mer (11 to 31 because I have very shorts reads) with the de novo assembler Ray. My dataset is from a sequencing project with Illumina technology. There is something who looks strange to me.
    I made a graph of the coverage per contigs (50 biggest but without the first because their coverage are to high and make hard to visualise clearly the graph).

    My results suggest that more high is the k-mer more the coverage is important and looks like a gaussian. Longer k-mers are inherently rarer, so my results don't make sens...
    Is there a person with a explaination?

    This is a screenshot of graph:

    Thanks!

          Strategies for Sequencing Challenging Samples
          by seqadmin


          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...
