1.5.0
Summary
In this release we have added full strand specific RNA-Seq support such that output contigs are correctly oriented with respect to the original transcripts sequenced. Also, there are new parameters to abyss-pe, xtip
and Q
, that are used to improve assembly in high coverage regions like highly expressed transcripts. Setting xtip=1
will more aggressively remove certain tips. The Q
parameter will prevent low quality bases from being used in the assembly. The version has been bumped to 1.5.0 to signify compatibility with Trans-ABySS 1.5.0.
ChangeLog
2014-01-15 Anthony Raymond [email protected]
- Release version 1.5.0
- Assemble strand-specific RNA-Seq libraries into strand-specific
contigs. - New parameters, Q and xtip. Improves assembly in high-coverage
regions by removing recurrent read errors. - Portability fixes for Fujitsu C Compiler.
abyss-pe:
- New parameter,
Q
, to mask low quality bases to N. - New parameter,
xtip=1
, to remove 2-in 0-out tips. - New parameter,
ss=1
, to perform strand-specific assembly
using ssRNA-Seq libraries. - New command,
scaftigs
. Breaks scaffold sequences at 'N's and
produce a scaftigs.fa file. - Include long-scaffs.fa in FAC statistics if
long
parameter
used.
abyss-fixmate:
- Performance improvement for GCC-4.6 and older.
DistanceEst:
- Report an estimation of duplicate fragments from read pairs
mapping to different contigs.
abyss-fixmate:
- Report number of fragments removed as noise and outliers.
