Overview

SGA is a de novo assembler designed to assemble large genomes from high coverage short read data. It is designed as a modular set of programs, which are used to form an assembly pipeline. A description of the SGA design is found here.

When first learning SGA, it is highly recommended to run one of the example assemblies from the src/examples directory to become familiar with the flow of data through the program. A page containing frequently asked questions can be found here.
