This session will start with a short overview of the data used in the Vertebrate Genome Project (VGP), and the pipeline developed by the collaboration VGP-Galaxy for the production of high-quality genome assembly. It will be followed but a hands-on assembly on real data in Galaxy. By the end of this session, you will be able to:
- Perform a genome Assembly in Galaxy
- Evaluate the quality of your genome
Prerequisites
- Understand the terms genome assembly, reads, contigs, phasing, haplotype, k-mers
- Knowledge of genome assembly steps: contigging, scaffolding, QC
- Create a user account on usegalaxy.org
