kmer counting - meryl
Version 1

Workflow Type: Galaxy

Kmer counting step, can run alone or as part of a combined workflow for large genome assembly.

  • What it does: Estimates genome size and heterozygosity based on counts of kmers
  • Inputs: One set of short reads: e.g. R1.fq.gz
  • Outputs: GenomeScope graphs
  • Tools used: Meryl, GenomeScope
  • Input parameters: None required
  • Workflow steps: The tool meryl counts kmers in the input reads (k=21), then converts this into a histogram. GenomeScope: runs a model on the histogram; reports estimates. k-mer size set to 21.
  • Options: Use a different kmer counting tool. e.g. khmer.
