Create Meryl Database used for the estimation of assembly parameters and quality control with Merqury. Part of the VGP pipeline.

VGP Workflow #1

This workflow produces a Meryl database and Genomescope outputs that will be used to determine parameters for following workflows, and assess the quality of genome assemblies. Specifically, it provides information about the genomic complexity, such as the genome size and levels of heterozygosity and repeat content, as well about the data quality.

Inputs

• A collection of Hifi long reads in FASTQ format
• k-mer length
• Ploidy

Outputs

• Meryl Database of kmer counts

VGP Workflow #1

This workflow collects the metrics on the properties of the genome under consideration by analyzing the k-mer frequencies. It provides information about the genomic complexity, such as the genome size and levels of heterozygosity and repeat content, as well about the data quality. It uses reads from two parental genomes to partition long reads from the offspring into haplotype-specific k-mer databases.

Inputs

• Collection of Hifi long reads in FASTQ format
• Paternal short-read ...
