Comparative genome analysis of jujube witches'-broom Phytoplasma, an obligate pathogen that causes jujube witches'-broom disease.

abstract：BACKGROUND:Rhesus monkeys (Macaca mulatta) are widely-used as experimental animals in biomedical research and are closely related to other laboratory macaques, such as cynomolgus monkeys (Macaca fascicularis), and to humans, sharing a last common ancestor from about 25 million years ago. Although rhesus monkeys have be...

abstract：BACKGROUND:NGS data contains many machine-induced errors. The most advanced methods for the error correction heavily depend on the selection of solid k-mers. A solid k-mer is a k-mer frequently occurring in NGS reads. The other k-mers are called weak k-mers. A solid k-mer does not likely contain errors, while a weak k-...
