Which PacBio ouputs use to do novo assembly?

Import your metadata.xml file as "RSII Metadata (XML)" data type.

Thank you for your answer

I allready try canu but for somme resons it dosn't get installed...
I will try to have a look at flye

But for SMRT link I don't understand to what the bas and bax files correspond to (see image)

If you are planning to use SMRTlink then use the bax and bas files.

There are other options like flye (https://github.com/fenderglass/Flye ) and canu (https://github.com/marbl/canu) that may be better than SMRTlink and they can use the fastq files.

Hello, I was given all the outputs of the result of a whole genome sequencing of a bacteria, and there is a lot of them and I don’t understand which one of these I should use to do a novo assembly:

• 3 *.subreads.fastq

• 3 *.subreads.fasta

• 3 *.bax.h5

• 1 *.bas.h5

• 1 *.mcd.h5

• 1 *.metadata.xml

I was thinking using SMRT link to do the analysis , but I don’t know which one of these I should use.

Thanks in advance.
