Velvet
Sequence assembler for very short reads. Velvet is a de novo genomic assembler specially designed for short read sequencing technologies, such as Solexa or 454, developed by Daniel Zerbino and Ewan Birney at the European Bioinformatics Institute (EMBL-EBI), near Cambridge, in the United Kingdom.
Velvet currently takes in short read sequences, removes errors then produces high quality unique contigs. It then uses paired-end read and long read information, when available, to retrieve the repeated areas between contigs.
Velvet has been installed on the cluster with several versions:
| /apps/velvet/1.1.05/velveth /apps/velvet/1.1.05/velvetg |
These versions are the defailt compile options (max kmer=31, single threaded) |
| /apps/velvet/1.1.05/velveth_OMP /apps/velvet/1.1.05/velvetg_OMP |
These versions are compiled with the default kmer, but using OpenMP--see OpenMP notes below for details |
| /apps/velvet/1.1.05/velveth_max99_OMP /apps/velvet/1.1.05/velvetg_max99_OMP |
These versions are compiled with a max kmer of 99 and OpenMP--see OpenMP notes below for details |
Note that all versions were compiled with icc.
Please file a bugzilla request for additional compile options like color space, different kmers, LONGSEQUENCES, etc.
OpenMP Notes
If you use one of the OpenMP versions of velvet, you must set the enviromental variable OMP_THREAD_LIMIT to the same value as your processor request in your submission script. For example if you use #PBS -l nodes=1:ppn=8 in your script also include export OMP_THREAD_LIMIT=8 (for a bash script).

Example submission script
!/bin/bash
#PBS -N velvet
#PBS -o velvet.out
#PBS -e velvet.err
#PBS -M <your e-mail addres>
#PBS -m abe
#PBS -l walltime=12:00:00 # HH:MM:SS
#PBS -l pmem=4gb # 4GB of RAM per thread, or 4X8=32GB in this case
#PBS -l nodes=1:ppn=8
cd $PBS_O_WORKDI
#Set OMP_THREAD_LIMIT--should be the same as ppn above
export OMP_THREAD_LIMIT=8
