FLASH 1.2.11 – Fast Length Adjustment of SHort reads

FLASH 1.2.11

:: DESCRIPTION

FLASH (Fast Length Adjustment of SHort reads) is a very accurate fast tool to merge paired-end reads from fragments that are shorter than twice the length of reads. The extended length of reads has a significant positive impact on improvement of genome assemblies.
