First DLS paper: Sorghum genome assembled with nanopore sequencing and DLS

Jun 26, 2018

Sorghum’s 10 chromosomes are represented in a final hybrid assembly consisting of only 29 scaffolds. Bionano maps were used extensively to detect and automatically correct assembly-based errors. The final scaffold N50 value is 33.28 Mbp and covers more than 90% of Sorghum’s expected genome length.
This study is another powerful example of the utility of Bionano maps for quickly building reference assemblies and further demonstrates the platform’s flexibility to work with any input sequence data – Bionano makes every sequence assembly better.
