Description

longstitch website  

A genome assembly correction and scaffolding pipeline using long reads, consisting of up to three steps:

  • Tigmint cuts the draft assembly at potentially misassembled regions
  • ntLink is then used to scaffold the corrected assembly
  • followed by ARKS for further scaffolding (optional extra step of scaffolding)

Environment Modules

Run module spider longstitch to find out what environment modules are available for this application.

System Variables

  • HPC_LONGSTITCH_DIR - installation directory
  • HPC_LONGSTITCH_BIN - executable directory
