Description

abruijn website  

ABruijn is a de novo assembler for PacBio and Oxford Nanopore Technologies reads. The algorithm uses an A-Bruijn graph to find the overlaps between reads and does not require them to be error-corrected. First, the algorithm produces a draft assembly by concatenating different parts of raw reads. This coarse sequence is then polished into a high quality assembly.

ABruijn works for both bacterial and eukaryotic genomes. Typically, assembly of a bacteria with 50x coverage takes less than an hour on a modern desktop, while yeast assembly takes about 5 hours. A eukaryotic genome of size 200 Mbp can be assembled within a day on a computational server.
