GAM – Genome Assemblies Merger

GAM

:: DESCRIPTION

GAM is a free parallel software tool to integrate two different assemblies and improves the overall quality of the genome sequences by merging them. It discovers and align similar sequences by using the positions of placed reads. An order sequence of reads contiguous on the same contig is called frame. When the same frame is shared by both original assemblies, GAM dubs it block.
