Evolutionary superscaffolding and chromosome anchoring to improve Anopheles genome assemblies

Evolutionary superscaffolding and chromosome anchoring to improve Anopheles genome assemblies

Abstract Background New sequencing technologies have lowered financial barriers to whole genome sequencing, but resulting assemblies are often fragmented and far from ‘finished’. Updating multi-scaffold drafts to chromosome-level status can be achieved through experimental mapping or re-sequencing e...
