Plant assemble - Plant de novo genome assembly: assembly v2
With the advancement of long-read sequencing technologies and associated bioinformatics tools, it has now become possible to de novo assemble complex plant genomes with unrivalled contiguity, completeness and correctness. As read lengths can surpass repeat lengths, the ability to assemble genomes de novo has dramatically improved, whereby complex plant

Tedna: a transposable element de novo assembler [PDF]
Abstract Motivation : Recent technological advances are allowing many laboratories to sequence their research organisms. Available de novo assemblers leave repetitive portions of the genome poorly assembled. Some genomes contain high proportions of transposable elements, and transposable elements appear to be a major force behind ...

Pattern formation during de novo assembly of the Arabidopsis shoot meristem [PDF]
Most multicellular organisms have a capacity to regenerate tissue after wounding. Few, however, have the ability to regenerate an entire new body from adult tissue. Induction of new shoot meristems from cultured root explants is a widely used, but poorly

Metassembler: merging and optimizing de novo genome assemblies [PDF]
AbstractGenome assembly projects typically run multiple algorithms in an attempt to find the single best assembly, although those assemblies often have complementary, if untapped, strengths and weaknesses. We present our metassembler algorithm that merges multiple assemblies of a genome into a single superior sequence.

Compacting and correcting Trinity and Oases RNA-Seq de novo assemblies [PDF]
Background De novo transcriptome assembly of short reads is now a common step in expression analysis of organisms lacking a reference genome sequence. Several software packages are available to perform this task. Even if their results are of good quality

De novo assembly of transcriptomes from a B73 maize line introgressed with a QTL for resistance to gray leaf spot disease reveals a candidate allele of a lectin receptor-like kinase [PDF]
Gray leaf spot (GLS) disease in maize, caused by the fungus Cercospora zeina, is a threat to maize production globally. Understanding the molecular basis for quantitative resistance to GLS is therefore important for food security.
