NextDenovo & NextPolish - Best Assembly Tool for ONT Platform The Road to One-Contig Chromosome Assembly
)
With the continual improvement of third generation seqeuncing technology (TGS), the throughtput and read length increase dramatically, especially on Nanopore sequencing platforms. The major chanllenge of TGS nowadays is how to fully leverage ultra long reads with novel or optimized algorithm to achieve the high-quality and one-contig assembly of a chromosome,which is the milestone of genome assembly.
