Velvet 1.2.10 – Sequence Assembler for Very Short Reads

Velvet 1.2.10

:: DESCRIPTION

Velvet is a de novo genomic assembler specially designed for short read sequencing technologies, such as Solexa or 454.Velvet currently takes in short read sequences, removes errors then produces high quality unique contigs. It then uses paired-end read and long read information, when available, to retrieve the repeated areas between contigs.

VelvetK 20120606 – Find a reasonable K-mer size to Assemble Genome Reads with Velvet

VelvetK 20120606

:: DESCRIPTION

VelvetK can estimate the best k-mer size to use for your Velvet de novo assembly. It needs two inputs: the estimated genome size, and all your sequence read files. The genome size can be supplied as as a number (eg. 3.5M) or as a FASTA file of a closely related genome.
