CoLoRMap: Correcting Long Reads by Mapping short reads [PDF]
Abstract Motivation Second generation sequencing technologies paved the way to an exceptional increase in the number of sequenced genomes, both prokaryotic and eukaryotic. However, short reads are difficult to assemble and often lead to highly fragmented assemblies.

A short presidential reading list [PDF]
A new U.S. president will be sworn into office in less than 3 months. Because scientific issues cut across many aspects of modern life, in both the public and private sectors, the president has several challenges. He or she must ensure that the government has access to robust advice about scientific issues to guide policy development.

Evaluation of short read metagenomic assembly [PDF]
Metagenomic assembly is a challenging problem due to the presence of genetic material from multiple organisms. The problem becomes even more difficult when short reads produced by next generation sequencing technologies are used. Although whole genome assemblers are not designed to assemble metagenomic samples, they are being used for metagenomics due ...

Towards reliable whole genome sequencing for outbreak preparedness and response
Background To understand the dynamics of infectious diseases, genomic epidemiology is increasingly advocated, with a need for rapid generation of genetic sequences during outbreaks for public health decision making.

An analysis of the feasibility of short read sequencing [PDF]
Several methods for ultra high-throughput DNA sequencing are currently under investigation. Many of these methods yield very short blocks of sequence information (reads). Here we report on an analysis showing the level of genome sequencing possible as a function of read length.

Determination of the Optimum Number of Short Reads to Obtain the Mitogenome in some Insect Orders
Sanger sequencing is frequently used as the final step in time-consuming extraction and enrichment processes for examining the mitochondrial genome (mitogenome).

Short read alignment with populations of genomes [PDF]
Abstract Summary: The increasing availability of high-throughput sequencing technologies has led to thousands of human genomes having been sequenced in the past years. Efforts such as the 1000 Genomes Project further add to the availability of human genome variation data. However, to date, there is no method that can map reads of a newly
