Cortex 1.05.21 – Genome Assembly and Variation Analysis

Cortex 1.05.21

:: DESCRIPTION

Cortex is an efficient and low-memory software framework for analysis of genomes using sequence data. There are two main executables, being developed in parallel streams: cortex_con (primary contact Mario Caccamo) is for consensus genome assembly, and cortex_var (primary contact Zamin Iqbal) is for variation and population assembly.
