Unicycler v0.4.4
A small release with a few bug fixes:
- Makefile fix for GCC 7 (thanks @cerebis!)
- Fixed crash when using contamination filter (thanks @phbrito!)
- Fixed a bug leading to unnecessarily slow path finding in hybrid assemblies
- Fixed some bugs related to dead-end trimming in hybrid assemblies
- Fixed an off-by-one error in contig placement into miniasm assemblies
and one new feature:
- Added
--existing_long_read_assembly
option. Allows a high quality long-read assembly (e.g. from Nanopolish or Arrow) to be injected into Unicycler's hybrid assembly pipeline. Can improve final assembly accuracy when short reads have incomplete coverage.
