Bacterial genome assembly & annotation

We offer to assemble your bacterial genomes using SPAdes (Illumina short reads) or PacBio’s SMRT Link 11.0 Microbial Genome Analysis pipeline (PacBio long reads). We perform quality controls (FastQC (Illumina only), ConFindr (Illumina only), QUAST (Illumina only), BUSCO), structurally annotate the genomes using PGAP, functionally annotate the genomes using eggNOG, VIBRANT (phage finder) and ABRicate (antibiotic resistance / virulence finder). If desired, the resulting genomes may be imported into OpenGenomeBrowser.
