ABySS 2.3.2 – de novo, parallel, paired-end Sequence Assembler

ABySS 2.3.2

:: DESCRIPTION

ABySS (Assembly By Short Sequences) is a de novo, parallel, paired-end sequence assembler that is designed for short reads. The single-processor version is useful for assembling genomes up to 100 Mbases in size. The parallel version is implemented using MPI and is capable of assembling larger genomes.
