De novo assembly of middle-sized genome using MinION and Illumina sequencers.

abstract：BACKGROUND:Gene expression technologies have the ability to generate vast amounts of data, yet there often resides only limited resources for subsequent validation studies. This necessitates the ability to perform sorting and prioritization of the output data. Previously described methodologies have used functional pat...
