Hey guys,
I'm completely new to de novo assembling and I have some questions about how to deal with Illumina sequencing reads.
So we have a set of multiple paired end reads for a strain of Streptomyces we sequenced from Illumina HiSeq. I'm wondering if there's a way to merge these pairs into a single pair so that we can assemble them together in one run. I've heard that you can just concatenate the reads using cat command in Linux, but I'm not sure if that's the best way to merge the reads.
Any suggestions on this issue would be greatly appreciated.
