Rascaf v1.0.2 – Scaffolding with RNA-seq Read Alignment

Rascaf v1.0.2

:: DESCRIPTION

Rascaf (RnA-seq SCAFfolder) uses continuity and order information from paired-end RNA-seq reads to improve a draft assembly, particularly in the gene regions. It takes as input an assembly and one or several RNA-seq data sets aligned to the genome, and recruits additional contigs into the assembly, potentially adjusting some scaffolds to better fit the data and to create longer gene models.
